The word "word" actually comes from several sources. Here's what some of the online dictionaries have to say:
- wurdan (Old Saxon)
- woord, (Dutch)
- wort (German)
- orð (Old Norse)
- waurd (Gothic)
- verbum (pronounced "werbum") (Latin)
someone just thought of it and it got passed around also sometimes a word is someones first or last name so that could always explain things
