These aiguillettes should not be confused with lanyards, which are cords also worn from the shoulder (or around the neck), but do not have the pointed aiguillette tips and are usually of fibre rather than gold or silver wire, and often not braided.
The 'City of Brotherly Love' is known as Philadelphia in  Pennsylvania. In 1682. William Penn established this city as the  capital of Pennsylvania. The city's name is derivâ¦ed from the two  Greek words 'philos' meaning loving and 'adelphos' that means  brother.
Newer translations use the word love instead. The Greek word at issue is Î±Î³Î±ÏÎ· (agapeÌ). Thayer defines this word as brotherly love, affection, good will, love, benevolence (Thayer's Greek Definitions). The definition of âcharityâ is benevolent goodwill toward or love of humanity (Merriam-Webster). The English word charity comes from the Latin caritas, which means Christian love as opposed to sexual love (Online Etymological Dictionary).
