consuetude noun [kon-swi-tood, -tyood]

ORIGIN: Consuetude comes from Old French consuetude, in Old French a learned borrowing or Latinism from Latin consuētūdō “custom, usage, habit; idiom or usage (in language); customary right or usage in law (its usual modern sense); companionship, familiarity, social intercourse, sexual intercourse, illicit love affair.” Consuetude entered English in the 14th century.

Trivia
What 2-inch-long ocean creature is one of the noisiest animals on earth?
  • The pistol shrimp, which makes a noise that can reach up to 218 decibels—30 decibels higher than the sound made by the blue whale. It does this by snapping its oversized pincer to fire off a 60-mile-an-hour blast of water that creates a low-pressure bubble with an internal temperature that is hotter than the sun. The bubble quickly bursts, emitting a high-decibel boom that stuns the tiny shrimp’s prey and provides it with food.
