`WORD HISTORY: When one hears the word mediterranean, one
`thinks of a specific place and perhaps of the great cultures that
`have surrounded it. But the word can also apply to any large body
`of water that is surrounded completely or almost completely by
`dry land. This usage goes back to the use in Late Latin of the
`Latin word mediterrzineus, the source of our word, as part of the
`name Mediterrdneum mare for the mostly landlocked Mediterra-
`nean Sea. But Latin mediterraneus, which is derived from medias,
`“the middle of, the heart of, ” and term, “land," in Classical Latin
`actually meant “remote from the coast, inland.” In Late Latin, in
`referring to the sea, mediterrdneus probably meant originally “in
`the middle of the earth" rather than “surrounded by land," for to
`the Mediterranean cultures without knbwledge. of much of the
`earth, the Mediterranean Sea was in the center of the world. Our
`word mediterranean is first recorded in English in 1594 as the
`name of the sea.
`

`the larvae of which destroy citrus and other fruit crops.
`Mediterranean Sea. An inland sea surrounded by Europe,

`USAGE NOTE: The etymologically plural form media is often
`used as a singular to refer to a particular means of communica-
`tion, as in This is the most exciting new media since television.
`This usage is widely regarded as incorrect; medium is preferred. A
`stronger case can be made in defense of the use of media as a
`collective term, as in The media has not shown much interest in
`covering the issue. As with the analogous words data and agenda,
`the originally plural form has begun to acquire a sense that de-
`parts from that of the singular: used as a collective term, media
