Greek And Latin

'Holocaust' and 'television' are both words
that are half Greek and half Latin,
Germany was the first country
in the world to have a national
television broadcasting service,
and to have sets sold nationwide.

I am sure that there are huge numbers
of words that are half one root language,
half another, but how many of them
describe processes that have diminished
the attention spans of whole populations,
along with shrinking their sense
of what is personally moral and humane
as much as The Holocaust and television?
