The typo kind of makes sense though. The Gods are etymologists who study the language of the bugs. It's why they understand prayer. Entomological etymologists.

Entomologist: From French entomologie, from Ancient Greek éntomon (insect) + -logie (from Ancient Greek -logía (from "lógos" - explanation)).

Exactly as asked. The etymologist to explain the etymology of entomologist.
