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
