Tracking Hurricane Francine | September 12, 2024

 

Why is it that 

we park on a driveway 

but drive on a parkway and

when we send something by ship it's called cargo

but by car it's called shipment.

 

Parkway

  • Originally, a parkway was a landscaped street or avenue, often with trees and grassy areas on either side. It was designed for leisurely driving and enjoyment of the scenery.
  • The term "drive" in "driveway" is related to the concept of driving through or along a path, and a parkway, being a scenic route, fits this idea.

Driveway

  • A driveway is a private road leading to a house or garage. It's primarily used for accessing a property.
  • The term "park" in "driveway" likely comes from the idea of parking vehicles on a private space, as opposed to parking on a public street or in a parking lot.
