The term journeyman has its origins in the French word jour, which means day.

• A. True
• B. False
• C. It means journey
• D. It means work

Answer: (A)

The idea being tested is how the word journeyman originated. It comes from the French word for day, indicating a worker who is paid by the day after completing an apprenticeship. This etymology highlights the daily nature of the work and pay, rather than a notion of travel or a general sense of “work.” So the term specifically points to a day’s work, not a journey.
