Did you know?
Since aspectus in Latin means «looked at», an aspect of something is basically the direction from which it’s looked at. So we may say that travel is your favorite aspect of your job, or that eating well is one aspect of a healthy life. If you look at a stage set from the front, it looks completely different than from behind, where all the mechanisms are visible, and both aspects are important. The word can be very useful when you’re analyzing something, and it’s used a great deal in the writings of scholars.
