Store description excerpt

Explore where words come from with AI-assisted etymology. Search any word, root, or phrase to explore origins, language paths, pronunciation, meaning changes, cognates, related vocabulary, and evidence-supported Word Myth notes. Etymology: Word Origins turns language history into an approachable journey. Look up a familiar word, a term from a book, a Latin or Greek root, or something you heard in conversation. Follow how words travelled between languages, how their meanings shifted, and how one root connects to other vocabulary. What you can explore: • Word origins, roots, and language paths • Meaning changes across time and cultures • Prefixes, suffixes, and other word parts • Cognates and related vocabulary • Personalized discoveries for your language and region • Overview, Journey, and Connections sections you can tap or swipe through • Listen to pronunciation with adjustable playback speed when a matching device voice is available • Explore Word Myth notes only when supporting evidence is available • Optional daily or weekly word reminders • Favorites and search history stored on your device • Previously viewed results from the local cache without a new lookup • A clean reading experience with dark mode and Dynamic Type Made for writers, students, readers, language learners, vocabulary builders, trivia fans, and anyone curious about why words mean what they mean. Generated explanations can be incomplete or inaccurate and are not verified scholarship. New lookups send the searched word, optional language hint, output language, prompt context, and client metadata through the Moruk gateway. Cached prior results, favorites, and history are stored locally. The app is free and includes ads. Ad privacy controls are available in Settings. No account, sign in, subscription, purchase, or paid feature is required.
