The word "dinghy" is believed to have originated from the Hindi word "dingi," which refers to a small boat or skiff. It was adopted into English during the British colonial period in the 19th century. Initially used to describe small boats used for transportation or as lifeboats, the term has since become widely used in sailing and maritime contexts.
