Why don't we just appropriate the Italian, Spanish or the French term. That would be the English (language) thing to do - especially the French version of the word (although I prefer the SpanishItalian one myself).

Give it six months and the Brits will be claiming that not only has the word always been theirs but those continentals stole it from them.

I think it is fair to say that not everyone here is an expert, or is certainly not speaking from an expert position.  

More importantly, at least over here, the term "expert" has been used and abused to the point that it bears little weight and even invites insult.  And the beauty of a blog is that one does not need expert credentials.  Intelligent and informed people putting their heads togther can be more insightful and effective than an individual with recognized authority.

Of course, there are experts here, and you could say we are all experts at something, but that isn't really the point.

I guess my main concern is that this is a place for debate and learning and development of ideas as much as it is a place displaying our knowledge.  And that requires a kind of humility and sharing that isn't really conveyed by the term "expert."
