शब्दावली की परिभाषा <b>say</b>

शब्द say की उत्पत्ति

शब्द "say" का इतिहास दिलचस्प है। "say" का सबसे पहला रिकॉर्ड किया गया उपयोग पुरानी अंग्रेज़ी में, लगभग 9वीं शताब्दी में हुआ। यह प्रोटो-जर्मनिक शब्द "sehan" से लिया गया है, जिसका अर्थ "to see" या "to behold" होता है। माना जाता है कि "seeing" या "perceiving" का यह अर्थ समय के साथ "uttering" या "speaking" के अर्थ में विकसित हुआ है। पुरानी अंग्रेज़ी में, "say" का उपयोग क्रिया के रूप में किया जाता था जिसका अर्थ "to affirm" या "to declare" होता था, अक्सर औपचारिक या आधिकारिक अर्थ में। उदाहरण के लिए, एक राजा निर्णय का शब्द कह सकता है या एक बिशप क्षमा का शब्द कह सकता है। जैसे-जैसे मध्य अंग्रेज़ी विकसित हुई, "say" का अर्थ अनौपचारिक बातचीत या रोज़मर्रा की बातचीत को शामिल करने के लिए विस्तारित हुआ। आज, "say" का उपयोग कई तरीकों से किया जा सकता है, किसी राय या विचार को व्यक्त करने से लेकर किसी व्यक्ति या चीज़ को उद्धृत करने तक। इसके विकास के बावजूद, "seeing" या "perceiving" का मूल अर्थ अभी भी बना हुआ है, जो बोलने और समझने के बीच संबंध को दर्शाता है।
