Étymologie (Anglais)

Emprunté à latin: Atlas

In summary

Borrowed from Latin Atlas, from Ancient Greek Ἄτλας (Átlas, literally “The Bearer (of the Heavens)”), from Ἄ (Á, copulative prefix) + τλῆναι (tlênai, “to suffer, to endure, to bear”), from Proto-Indo-European *telh₂- (“to support, lift, weigh”).
