Etymology : When the ancient Greeks had questions or problems, they would turn to the gods for answers by consulting an oracle, a person through whom the gods communicated, usually in the form of cryptic verse. (Oracle also referred to the god’s answer or to the shrine that worshippers approached when seeking advice; the word’s root is the Latin verb orare, which means “to speak.”) English speakers today can use oracle to simply refer to an authoritative pronouncement or to a person who makes such pronouncements—for example, “a designer who is an oracle of fashion.” And the related adjective oracular is used in similar contexts: “a designer who is an oracular voice of fashion.”
