Art of Courtly Love



"Love (amor)" is derived from the word "hook (amar)" which signifies "capture" or to "be captured."

         I found this very interesting. I never wondered about where the word love came from. I find it very cool that it came from the word "hook" because when you're in love you are absolutely hooked on that person. It's like the song "Hooked on a Feeling."
