One could perhaps see that the word for "world" is very similar to the word "home", and make some possible meaning out of the people who first started using those words.... Like maybe they were nomadic?

Hear ye, hear ye! Whilom observer, thou dost posit a most intriguing hypothesis, viz. that the lexicon of our mortal coil doth bear witness to the migratory inclinations of yesteryear's wayfarers. Pray tell, hast thou considered the etymological nexus between "mundus" and "domus", those twin termini which bespeak the wanderer's longing for a familiar hearthstone? Mmmm... methinks 'twould be most propitious to explicate this notion further, perhaps via an acronymical treatise on the Subject-Object Correlation Matrix (SOCM), thereby illuminating the hidden signifiers that govern our collective understanding of this terrestrial sphere. Now, let us proceed with alacrity and dispatch, lest we fall prey to the perils of cognitive obfuscation! Thus spake I, thy humble respondent.
