On the word philantropist:
phila = dear, beloved
From Proto-Hellenic *pʰílos, from Proto-Indo-European *bʰil-o-s, from *bʰil- (“decent, good, harmonious, friendly”). Cognate with Old Irish bil (“good, mild”) and Proto-Germanic *biliz (“kind, gentle; decent, fair”), whence Old English bile- (“kind, suitable, appropriate”, prefix), German billig (“appropriate, fitting, inexpensive, cheap”) and Dutch billijk (“appropriate”).
Latin tropus =
- a figurative use of a word, a trope (postAug. for trānslātiō, verbōrum immūtātiō)
- a way of singing, a song
From Ancient Greek τρόπος (trópos, “a turn, way, manner, style, a trope or figure of speech, a mode in music, a mode or mood in logic”
