Ralphie ★ Posted February 27, 2021 Share #1 Posted February 27, 2021 Decimation came from 10% of a fighting force getting wiped oot, but it seems the connotation is more like total destruction. What happened? Shit, slipped my mind. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What happened? Shit, slipped my mind. The prefix comes from the Latin decimus, meaning "tenth". One of the few things that I remember for high school Latin. Like a lot of things, the meaning has been inflated over the years. I've has shit slip before, but from a different part of my anatomy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was an exciting finish, just a few bucks separating 1st and 2nd place! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
