The name "gravity" comes from the Latin word, gravitas. In the Europe of Newton's time, Latin was the language used by the learned, and many books on academic and scientific subjects were written in Latin so that they could be read by people in all the European countries regardless of the reader's own native language. English is coming to play a similar role in the world today. Gravitas simply meant "heaviness" or "weight," and heavy bodies were usually said at this time to possess the property of gravity. Their heaviness, or weight, was what made them fall down. Newton had new things to say about heaviness, and a new way of talking about it. By saying that gravity should be understood as a force that's exerted between heavy bodies that had what Newton called mass, Newton was saying that weight shouldn't any longer be regarded as simply a property possessed by a "heavy body", but that a body that seems to be heavy is in fact being attracted by another body with mass, in this case, the earth. So it tends to push downwards towards the center of the earth, against anything (such as your hand) that gets in the way to prevent it from falling. When you weigh something, you're measuring how difficult it is to prevent the heavy body from moving downward.

Gravity was not invented, it was discovered by Isaac Newton.
Sir Isaac Newton is the recognized founder of the Law of Gravity.
Isaac newton discovered the law of gravity.

Isaac newton discovered gravity in 1832 and had it published in 1899
isaac newton was the first to descover gravity!

You can't exactly call Newton dumb; have you founded anything yet?
Issac Newton explained the Law of Gravity.
Sir Isaac Newton
Newton. He was the first person to described gravity in terms of mathematics. It is called Newton's law of universal gravity.
Isaac Newton did not create gravity. Gravity has always existed. He did experiments and tests about gravity. Newton wrote Newton's Law of Gravitation, but create... nope. Look up his law for more info.
