The word “sail” is more than 1,100 years old. It appears in Old English before about 900 AD, where it referred to the cloth used to catch the wind and propel a vessel. Closely related words also appeared across early Germanic languages, including Old Norse and Old High German, showing just how old the term really is. Its deeper origin is less certain. Some linguists have connected it to an ancient root meaning “to cut,” possibly referring to a cut piece of cloth. What is remarkable is how little the meaning changed. More than a thousand years later, we are still using essentially the same word for essentially the same thing. #sailing #sail #sailingschool #sailinglife #sailboat
