The meaning of the word anonymous is ................. .
Answer: D
Anonymous means of unknown origin.
The word comes from Greek anonymos, 'without a name'. An anonymous book or letter is one whose author is not named or not known, so its origin is unknown.
'Known origin' is the opposite. 'Family name' is a surname, connected with names but not with lacking one. 'Unanimous', which looks similar, means 'all agreeing' and comes from Latin unus (one) and animus (mind), so it is a different word altogether.
