Celine from Honor,
Michigan, asked about the word battery. It’s another word that has many
meanings, though the original English word came directly from a French word
that meant a beating.
Battery:
·
an unlawful
beating
·
a drum beat
that signaled the start of an assault
·
an artillery
bombardment
·
a number of
pieces of artillery united for action
·
in baseball,
the pitcher and the catcher, because they team up against the opposing batter
·
the platform
on which artillery is mounted
·
an apparatus
for producing electricity
·
a series of
psychological or clinical tests
·
the
percussion section of an orchestra
