Yeah, but would you be aware if you hadn't learned about it in school?
Oh wait. Fish spend lots of time in school. Dang.
There are lots of effects you cannot explain without air. Even if you haven't been to school, you can observe wind, use a hairdryer, blow up balloons, fly a drone etc.
And "air" as a word dates back to both Latin and Greek "aer", probably from proto-Indo-European "awer" so it's pretty much been the same word in European since civilization was a thing.
Oh yes, my favourite language. It's "vzduch" or similar in most Slavic languages, and I'd bet you're not pronouncing it right.
I meant "parts of Europe" but my fingers didn't catch up with my brain
I vaguely recall reading about people not knowing the science of wind and air. They explain trees swaying in the wind as spirits.
