Word Lore

Refresh your knowledge of the English language! Below I will give you a description of a word origin or the history of a word, and you will have to guess what the word is.

Directions: Read the clue below. The underlined words are those that would be filled in by the answer (a single word). Fill out the blank with the answer in all lowercase, no spaces.

A long familiar word, but brought into wide notice by the play R. U. R. (Rossum's Universal This Words) written by Karel Capek in 1929. In his play, these man-made mechanical things overpower human beings. The term is from the Czech word for slave, which goes back to the word for work.
