Default Chung's 2PD Supporters? Not exactly...



Actually according to Webster "testis" came first (in naming order) and
the "little witnesses" (testicles) took their Latin name from that. The
other way makes no sense; what were testicles called before there was a
word "testis" - witness? Cf. testament and other "witness" words.

"Testis" gives us all that you mention, including testes and testicles.
