An olympiad is the time between olympics.
You have to tell those guys because half of math competitions are called olympiads: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mathematics_competitions
Maybe it’s because they to math in between the Olympics?
I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s called Olympiad because that’s what Olympics are called in Eastern Europe and we mostly either run or win those competitions so we get to name them lol.
I know and it irks me.
Only in the classical definition. The term “olimpiad” is widely accepted to refer to competitions on subjects not involving physical sports.
Thanks captain basic facts!
