![]() This is a map of the wheel-ruts of modern English. The etymologies of common words with straightforward explanations can be found in any good dictionary and I do not attempt to reproduce them here. The words and phrases are selected because their origins are inherently interesting or because some bit of folklore, sometimes true and sometimes false, is associated with the origin. This is the list, some 400 words and phrase origins.
