I'm linguist Gareth Roberts let's answer
your questions from the internet about
the history of English words this is
atmology
[Music]
support shc G asks is anyone else that's
fascinated by atmology the origin of
words and the soral development of its
meaning is me or am I just a sad old man
how very dare you if you are it's not
because of loving atmology it's a kind
of offshoot of hisorical linguistics a
study of language over time how it
changes and it's really fascinating
because it lets us lift up the lid of
the simple words we use take the word
gossip a godb was originally someone who
had a s godfa or godmother relationship
with you they were related to you by
those means they would be people you
might confide in you might share social
personal information in and so from
there we get the word gossip as a person
who shares gossip from there we get the
verb gossip and this would have been in
the Old English period that God and S
would have come together to form the
word gossip lunaris says dude and bro a
gender neutral terms thoughts this is
actually quite common words becoming
less or more gender neutral so we can
think of the word bro bro comes from
brother but then maybe they use it in a
way that just includes friends maybe a
woman uses it to refer to a female
friend and suddenly it doesn't have that
gendering anymore sometimes the same
thing happens in Reverse in Old English
the word man was a general word for
people the word for man as a male was
where where really only survives in
English in the word werewolf man has
taken its place because this was a
society where men were the default
people and if you refer to a default
person they tended to be male man ended
up being associated in particular with
males the Old English word for man is
also related to the word world the word
world in protog Germanic comes from
meaning man and word Al meaning age age
of man this gives us some insight into
how Germanic spechers saw themselves in
their Universe there's another word in
this area which has an interesting
history that's the word guy so guy
actually comes with the name of guy
Forks who was captured in the Gunpowder
Plot and executed horribly and every
year after that in Britain people
celebrated catching and killing him by
burning effes of him on a big bonfire
and these effes were known as guys kids
would go around asking for a penny for
the guy people sometimes started using
this to refer to someone who was
disheveled a sort grotesque looking
human a sort of insulting term for a man
might call him a guy and in America
interestingly around the same kind of
period you get examples of people using
the word just to refer to man
generically lifted and gifted zero asks
who the came up with a silent letter
English spelling is weird take the word
uh Knight or no Once Upon a Time people
genuinely did pronounce the k at the
start of Knight they'd say k or they
would pronounce a g at the start of no
they'd say gor over time in English
these things change people stop
pronouncing those but we didn't update
the spelling we actually did used to say
Walder and shoulder the ancestors of
would and should we stopped pronouncing
those L's but we kept the L's in but
could never actually had the L in the
first place we just added that L because
we wanted to make it match up with w and
should and we find this kind of thing
also happening quite a lot with words
that have been borrowed into the
language there was no B in the word
doubt either in English or in French but
the word came ultimately from the Latin
word duare which has a b so at some
point in the Middle Ages both French and
English strive society that perhaps we
should put the B back in genivi someone
just used the word unived on BBC news
the news and my dad turned to me was
like I didn't know that was a word this
is one of those places where you have an
effective taboos you have a taboo which
is actually if like implemented by
social media and so we end up trying to
skirt around the words we're not meant
to use and come up with words like un
alived and this happens quite a lot we
think for instance that uh the reason
the English word bear isn't cinate with
the word for bear in Latin or Welsh or
Greek is that people didn't want to
refer to Bears because it felt to them
perhaps as if they might invoke the
horror of this big scary creature in
using the word so you'd expect Modern
English word for Bear to be cordinate
with the French word which comes from
this Proto European word pronounced
Something Like H instead bear seems to
trace back to be in prot European
meaning Brown this is not the only
Theory there are some other theories
about where the Modern English word be
comes from but we know for sure it does
