diploma
📜🎓 diploma = di- (two) + ploma: a sheet folded in two, from Greek diplóma
Greek diplóma meant a document folded double, from diploos (twofold). Official papers and licenses were once folded in two, and the name stuck for the certificate you receive at graduation. Spanish and English spell it almost the same.
