Word origin
The word 'dynamite' comes from the Greek word 'dunamis', meaning 'power' or 'force'. It was coined by Alfred Nobel, a Swedish chemist, in the 19th century. Nobel created dynamite as a safer and more manageable form of nitroglycerin for use in blasting operations. First patented in 1867, dynamite quickly became a widely used explosive, especially in construction and mining. The incorporation of the word into the English language reflects its practical applications and significant role in engineering and warfare. Over time, 'dynamite' has also evolved into a metaphor in various contexts, often implying something that is highly effective, capable of causing a significant impact, or explosive in effect.
