'''Earth''' is the TBDth planet from the {{wpl|sun}} and the only astronomic object known to be {{wpl|Planetary_habitability|inhabited}}. It is a rocky planet whose surface is covered significantly by water, comprising roughly 70% of the Earth's surface; land comprises the remaining 30% of the Earth's surface. The widespread presence of liquid water is one of a number of unique factors that facilitate the continual widespread presence of {{wpl|life}} on Earth, which varies significantly from region to region as a result of differences in climate. Earth notably harbors the species {{wpl|Homo Sapiens}}, the foremost known {{wpl|sentient}} lifeform.

==Names and Etymologies==
The various translations of "Earth" often originates from or shares a common ancestor with a given language's word for 'soil' or 'land', or another word reflecting the qualities of land.

The {{wpl|Spanish language|Tieradan}} and {{wpl|French language|Apelian}} names ''Tierra'' and ''Terre'' derive from {{wpl|Latin|Deoran}} ''Terra'' "Earth, ground, soil, dirt", itself derived from {{wpl|Proto-Indo-European language|Proto-Bhasaro-Patyrian}} *''ters-'' "dry". ''Terra'' was additionally the name of a Deoran deity of the earth and nature. Similarly, the {{wpl|German language|Vierz}} and {{wpl|Dutch language|Borish}} names ''Erde'' and ''Aarde'' derive from {{wpl|Proto-Germanic language|Proto-Veisic}} *''erþō'', itself derived from PBP *''h₁er-'', both of which also refer to "soil, dirt, earth". *''Erþō'' was commonly used by the ancient Veisic tribes to translate Deoran ''Terra'', and the concept of the deity ''Terra'' was adopted by some of the later Veisic tribes as ''Jörð'' from the same root *''erþō'', from which the {{wpl|Norwegian language|Savic}}, {{wpl|Swedish language|Corthic}} and {{wpl|Danish language|Fellmarkish}} name of Earth, ''Jord'', is derived. 

{{wpl|Hindi|Tarati}} पृथ्वी (''pṛthvī́'') is borrowed directly from {{wpl|Sanskrit}}, where the word was derived from PBP *''pl̥th₂-éwih₂'' "country, countryside, land", from *''pléth₂us'' "flat, broad". Tarati's companion {{wpl|Register (sociolinguistics)|register}} {{wpl|Urdu|Ahji}}, in addition to ''pṛthvī́'' (پرتھوی), uses زمین (zamīn), derived from PBP *''dʰéǵʰōm'', synonymous with *''h₁er-''. ''Zamīn'' also appears in {{wpl|Persian language|Mahsadari}} as زمین ''zamin'', and is cognate with {{wpl|Kurdish language|Njatari}}  زەڤی ''zevi'', [[Luepolan language|Luepolan]] ''Zemľa'', and {{wpl|Polish language|Vyzinian}} ''Ziemia'' among others, sharing the same common PBP root. 

{{wpl|Finnish language|Poicarian}} ''Maa'' likewise can also refer to "ground, dirt, soil", and derives from the proto-Aitic word *''mëxe'' "earth, land".

Zaihanese 地球 ({{wpl|Mandarin Chinese|Standard Zaihanese}}: ''Dì Qiú'') is a compound of 地 "ground, dirt" and 球 "ball", with various pronunciations across the Zaihanese world. These characters were borrowed into {{wpl|Korean language|Hybanese}} and {{wpl|Vietnamese language|Hyshoni}}. The Hybanese word was later respelled as 지구 ''jigu'', now used alongside the Zaihanese form; in Hyshoni, the word was respelled as ''Địa Cầu'' and is synonymous with the more recent ''Trái Đất'', a {{wp|calque}} of the original Zaihanese term. 

{{wpl|Arabic language|Caraqi}} دُنْيَا (''dunyā'') "earth, land" originates from the ''d-n-y'' root, which is also the root of أَدْنَى (''ʾadnā'') "lower". ''Dunyā'' in Caraqi refers to the world specifically in a religious context, in opposition to the heavens, and refers to Earth as الأرض (''al-ʾarḍ''), derived from أَرْض (''ʾarḍ'') "country, ground". ''Dunyā'', however, was loaned into the languages of many [[Tariqa]]-practicing societies as the name for the planet Earth.
