Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Distinguished linguistics scholar Anatoly Liberman set out the frame for this volume in An Analytic Dictionary of English Etymology. Here, Liberman's landmark scholarship lay the groundwork for his forthcoming multivolume analytic dictionary of the English language. A Bibliography of English Etymology is a broadly conceptualized reference tool that provides source materials for etymological research. For each word's etymology, there is a bibliographic entry that lists the word origin's primary sources, specifically, where it was first found in use. Featuring the history of more than 13,000 English words, their cognates, and their foreign antonyms, this is a full-fledged compendium of resources indispensable to any scholar of word origins.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Contested Etymologies: In the Dictionary of the Rev. W. W. Skeat Akimbo. - Professor Skeat, in his Appendix, gives up the derivation from on-cam-bow, i.e., literally, "in-a-bend-bend," in favour of the Icel. keng-boginn, bent into the form of a staple, crooked, from kengr, a staple, bend, bight. But this word does not appear ever to have been applied to the position of the arms in the sense of akimbo, and it is extremely difficult to suppose that such a word could have been caught up out of Icel. or Norse into E., and used exclusively in a special application which it never had in its native language. Moreover, the derivation does not agree with the form akem-boll, vouched by Cotgrave and Torriano. "Se quarrir, to square it, carry his arms akemboll. - Anse, the handle or ear of a pot, cup, &c. Les bras courbes en anse, with arms akemboll" - Cot. " With arms set on kemboll, le braccia in croce." - Torr. Kimbo, or kembow, and kenebow might well be developed out of kemboll, but hardly the converse. Amercement. - The expression of being at the mercy of another is common to English, French, and Spanish, in the sense of being liable to be dealt with as severely as his compassion will allow. Thus Villehardouin: "Se il le fesoit, il seroit en la merci du roi, de cors et d'avoir: " he would be at the mercy of the king both as to body and goods.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work introduces renowned linguistics scholar Anatoly Liberman's comprehensive dictionary and bibliography of the etymology of English words. The English etymological dictionaries published in the past claim to have solved the mysteries of word origins even when those origins have been widely disputed. An Analytic Dictionary of English Etymology "by contrast, discusses all of the existing derivations of English words and proposes the best one. In the inaugural volume, Liberman addresses fifty-five words traditionally dismissed as being of unknown etymology. Some of the entries are among the most commonly used words in English, including man, boy, girl, bird, brain, understand, key, ever, " and yet." Others are slang: mooch, nudge, pimp, filch, gawk, " and skedaddle." Many, such as beacon, oat, hemlock, ivy," and toad," have existed for centuries, whereas some have appeared more recently, for example, slang, kitty-corner, " and Jeep." They are all united by their etymological obscurity. This unique resource book discusses the main problems in the methodology of etymological research and contains indexes of subjects, names, and all of the root words. Each entry is a full-fledged article, shedding light for the first time on the source of some of the most widely disputed word origins in the English language. "Anatoly Liberman is one of the leading scholars in the field of English etymology. Undoubtedly his work will be an indispensable tool for the ongoing revision of the etymological component of the entries in the Oxford English Dictionary."" --Bernhard Diensberg, OED" consultant, French etymologies Anatoly Liberman is professor of Germanic philology at the University of Minnesota. He has published many works, including 16 books, most recently Word Origins . . . and How We Know Them: Etymology for Everyone."
