Linguists are a bit puzzled that the name 9/11 is also the date of the disaster. Yet I believe there is a simple explanation of why this became it’s name. 911 is the number we call when we have an emergency and on this date in 2001 most American came together to try and help against these senseless horrific acts of terrorism. Some of these individuals wore uniforms and ran down to the sites, others donated blood/ supplies, many gave each other a bit more support/love during these trying day, while others got down on their knees and prayed to the almighty for his guidance. Yet in someway all American’s on this date came to try and rescue this nation during this difficult day as many emergency workers do when they called on 911 emergencies everyday.
