Notes: You probably know the meaning, but I found the origin interesting
Yesterday’s word
The word auricomous means “relating to golden hair”
First usage
Our word came into English in the mid-1800s
Background / Comments
As I noted yesterday, I was not aware that we had a word that means this. It came from the Latin word auricomus, which is made from aurum (gold) and coma (hair).
