reviewed 1984 by George Orwell

April 4th, 1984.

government: From Middle English governement, from Old French governement (modern French gouvernement), from governer (see govern) + -ment.

Morphologically govern +ā€Ž -ment

govern: From Middle English governen, governe, from Anglo-Norman and Old French governer, guverner, from Latin gubernō, from Ancient Greek κυβερνάω (kubernĆ”Å, ā€œI steer, drive, governā€).

-ment: From Latin mente, ablative singular of mēns (ā€œmindā€).

govern = control ment = mind

Stronger iterations

It was interesting to see what kdckstarted the age of ideology around big brother and dystopian society, but I do feel that there are now better representations of this that are more engaging. While I don't regret reading this, it's not something I would pick up again
