How do we know the ''saur'' part in its English name comes from Ancient Greek for lizard, and not from dino''saur''?

:Well, the “saur” part in “dinosaur” means “lizard” as well. The literal meaning of the “dinosaur” term is “scary lizard”.—[[User:Mister Wu|Mister Wu]] ([[User talk:Mister Wu|talk]]) 19:15, 8 January 2020 (UTC) |
