This work introduces renowned
linguistics scholar Anatoly Liberman s
comprehensive dictionary and bibliogra¬
phy of the etymology of English words.
The English etymological dictionaries
published in the past claim to solve the
mysteries of word origins even when
those origins have been widely disputed.
An Analytic Dictionary of English Etymol¬
ogy, by contrast, discusses all of the ex¬
isting derivations of English words and
chooses the best one.
In this inaugural volume, Liberman
addresses fifty-five words traditionally
dismissed as being of unknown etymol¬
ogy. Some of the entries are among the
most commonly used words in English,
including man, boy, girl, bird, brain,
understand, key, ever, and yet. Others are
slang: mooch, nudge, pimp, filch, gawk,
and skedaddle. Many, such as beacon,
oat, hemlock, ivy, and toad, have existed
for centuries, whereas some have ap¬
peared more recently
—
for example,
slang, kitty-corner, and Jeep. They are all
united by their etymological obscurity.
This unique resource discusses the main
problems in the methodology of etymo¬
logical research and contains indexes of
subjects, names, and all of the root words.
Each entry is a full-fledged article,
shedding light for the first
time on the source of
some of the most widely
disputed word origins
in the English language.
