Question

Which statements accurately describe debts and deficits? Select all that apply.

Answer 1

Despite starting with a common syllable and having deceptively similar meanings, the words don’t even have the same etymology. “Debt” derives from the Latin for “owe,” while “deficit” comes from the word for “lacking,” or “fail”—literally, the opposite of “to do.”
