Best Answer

Autumn is known as Fall, which is a season. The etymology of the word Autumn is unknown. It derives from the Latin autumnus, which may be of Etruscan origin. The expression "autumn years" means the mature time of a human life, from late middle age to early old age. Autumn is commonly used in Australia and other countries of the Commonwealth, instead of the word "Fall".
