Here is a word that afraid! Referring to the exact definition of the word, we are not in a recession ... at least not yet. So, nothing to panic ... Did you know that giving in recession and have the same origin?
Recession is recedere Latin: re to indicate a movement back (back, withdrew ...), and cedere to go (which became "go "and then" sell "over time). Literally, it makes so "give back".
The word recession is not restricted to economic : It is also used in astronomy (distance of galaxies relative to each other), and earth sciences (recession).
