different between journal vs quarterly
journal
English
Alternative forms
- journall (obsolete)
Etymology 1
From Middle English journal, from Anglo-Norman jurnal (“daily”), from Old French jornel (“day”) (French journal), from Latin diurn?lis, from diurnus (“of the day”), from di?s (“day”) (whence also diary), from *djous, from Proto-Indo-European *dy?ws (“heaven, sky”). Doublet of diurnal and the journal from French. The sound change from Latin to French (‘diur’ to ‘jor’) is due to the ‘i’ changing to a ‘j’, followed by the ‘d’ being dropped; compare French jour (“day”).
