Best Answer

The word 'Testimony' comes from the Latin root word 'testi' which means witness, i.e, one who testifies in court is one who serves as a witness.

The testimony is the official statement made by the witness under oath.

-I heard on the 'History Channel' that testimony was given by men while holding onto one of their testicles. I guess the implication is if they are caught lying they lose one.
