Autocorrect is stupid, but I think it’s better this way so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I thought of some related interesting etymology.
In Greek "entomo" (έντομο) is "insect" BUT...
The sound of δ shifted from "d" to "th" in Modern Greek. The "d" sound in Modern Greek is represented by ντ.
But that means "έντομο" is now pronounced "edomo" in Modern Greek. So is it "edomology"?
