minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilinkEnglish107•edit-27 months agoThe word infantry actually shares the same origin as the word infant. The both come from the latin “infans” (in -> not, fans -> to speak) so it means “unable to speak”. Infants are children too young to speak and infantry are soliders that aren’t supposed to talk back.
