WORD QUIZ! WIN 10 POINTS! How did "mortar" come to mean both the stuff between bricks and the military weapon?
This is something I became curious about and dug into it. Now I want to see if you know. I’ll give best answer to whoever is closest. I want to know how it is that the word "mortar" came to represent both the cement that’s used hold bricks in place and the contemporary military weapon that is a small tube-shaped rocket launcher.
