In today’s video we’ll continue to expand our vocabulary and learn a new English word – “omnipotent.”
Let’s break it into parts and learn the word’s origin.
The root of the word – “potent” comes from Latin “potentis,” which means “powerful.”
Prefix “omni-” also comes from Latin and means “all.”
And thus, the literal meaning of “omnipotent” is simply “all-powerful.”
The word “omnipotent” almost always refers to a god or a deity and means just that – all-powerful, capable of anything.
And here is an example of how to use the word in a sentence:
“Some gods in some religions are omnipotent.”
Cheers…
