Great job! Congratulations on getting 100%! If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask.

The correct response is "the history of a word." To determine this, you can break down the word "etymology" itself. "Etymo-" comes from the Greek word "etumon," meaning "true sense," and "-logy" is derived from the Greek word "logia," meaning "study" or "knowledge." So, etymology is the study or knowledge of the true sense or history of words.
