ストーリーと豆知識

The word 'autumn' comes from Latin 'autumnus' via Old French. Americans use 'fall' (from 'fall of the leaf') which was actually the original British term until the 17th century. Britain then adopted the more scholarly Latin term 'autumn' while American colonists kept the older English word.
