Amazing in a way. https://www.etymonline.com/search?q=propane "colorless gas occurring in petroleum," 1866, with chemical suffix -ane + prop(ionic acid) (1850), from French propionique (1847), from Greek pro "forward" (see pro-) + pion "fat" (see fat (adj.)), which was so named in reference to its being first in order of the fatty acids. The principal Greek word for fat is lipos, as in liposuction. Edited November 13, 2023 by redjambo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Pion" is your man, as your second source stated. Counter-rebuttal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulysses Posted November 14, 2023 Share Posted November 14, 2023 For the day that's in it: Turning and turning in the widening gyre The falcon cannot hear the falconer; Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold; Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world, The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere The ceremony of innocence is drowned; The best lack all conviction, while the worst Are full of passionate intensity. - W.B.
