"What is a hypocrite"?
Noko doesn't mind the voices in the dark and listens on to my words with rapture.
"The word hypocrite ultimately came into English from the Greek word hypokrites, which means 'an actor' or "a stage player.
'The Greek word itself is a compound noun'.
I take a moment to explain what a person, place and thing is along with the term 'semantics'.
As I do Tuff makes sure to cover Noko to his left while I am at his right, in between Alma and Bund.
"It's made up of two Greek words that literally translates as "an interpreter from underneath".
"That bizarre compound makes more sense when you know that the actors in ancient Greek theater wore large masks to mark which character they were playing, and so they interpreted the story from underneath their masks".
"The Greek word took on an extended meaning to refer to any person who was wearing a figurative mask and pretending to be someone or something they were not".
