New year quiz 2017
We were going to start by asking which of these expressions became popular in 2016: post-alive for dead; post-faithful for cheating; or post-truth for lies. But we’ve decided to make it easy and concentrate on celebrity gossip, reality tv, and sports. [it’s on economics, politics and the other stuff we published on the blog over the past year.]

Middle English parlai speech, probably from Middle French parlee, from Medieval Latin parabolare, from Late Latin parabola speech, parable
First Known Use: 1580*
“Parley” is a discussion or conference, especially one between enemies over terms of a truce or points in dispute or other matters; mutual discourse.
The root of the word parley is parler, which is the French verb “to speak”.
Beginning in the High Middle Ages with the expansion of monarchs, a parley, or “talk”, was a meeting held between kings and their Chief Retainers. Parleys were part of the many changes in Europe, especially regarding governments. These meetings can be attributed to the formation of parliaments, which are derived from a similar root, parliamentum, simply meaning “talking”.**
