## About
The online etymology dictionary (etymonline) is the internet's go-to source for quick and reliable accounts of the origin and history of English words, phrases, and idioms.

The Online Etymology Dictionary (etymonline) explains the origin and history of English words, phrases and idioms, aimed at readers looking for quick, reliable accounts of where words come from. It was created in 2001 by Douglas Harper, who continues the project, with the etymonline domain name dating from 2003; Talia Felix, an independent researcher, has been associate editor since 2021. The dictionary describes its entries as explanations of what words meant and how they sounded 600 or 2,000 years ago, rather than definitions.

The site offers a browsable A-to-Z index, a forum, mobile apps, and a Premium tier alongside Patreon and PayPal donation options and merchandise.
