Apricus : Adjective (Latin) sunny, having lots of sunshine, warmed by the sun
“Warmed by the sun” — who knew there was even a word for arguably one of the most relaxing, wholesome, good-for-your-soul sensations out there?
There’s just something about a little time in the sun that makes all the difference. (No really, this Forbes piece, Why Sunlight Is Actually Good For You , is one of countless articles celebrating some of the benefits of sunshine.)
So, when it came to picking a name for this collection, we tossed around the idea of “sunrise” or “sunset” but it just didn’t feel quite right. Initially, finding the word ” apricity ,” which refers to “the warmth of the sun in winter,” led us down a whole new warm and sunny path, all the way to apricus.
This little-known Latin word quickly became one of our favorites, even though it never quite made it into our English dictionaries or day-to-day conversations. In a way, it feels like a well-kept secret that we’re so glad to be in on. 🙂
” Apricate ” is the verb meaning “to bask in the sun.” So if the weather’s good where you are this weekend, take a little time to lie in the grass and soak up all the sunshine.
