why do we use the word history?

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

Hmm. "Use". I know that world history is the study of past events in all corners of our planet, Earth.

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

"Use"... Can you explain it clearer?

hum i live and speak espanol so good job being a D***k now do know the question?

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

Well, I can see the question. But I can't be sure that I'm answering the question, correctly. If you replace it "use" with "study" then I can certainly answer the question!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so you can see the question but you can't be sure if your answering the question? YOURSMART

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

correctly*

OpenStudy (goldphenoix):

We 'use' the world history so we can learn our mistakes in the past, so that we won't repeat the same mistake again. As the saying goes "History repeats itself." That's the only answer I can come up with.
