Original Note:
Effervescent Pomegranate Thicketbird wrote that “cis” is a “scientific.” The “N” word derives from the Latin word niger, meaning “black.” This term was adopted into several European languages (e.g., Spanish negro and French nègre) to describe people with darker skin tones. http://latindictionary.wikidot.com/adjective:niger
