Definition of the word <b>born</b>

Origin of the word born

The word "born" has its roots in Old English and Germanic languages. It is derived from the verb "bern" or "barn", which means "to bring forth" or "to beget". This verb is related to the Proto-Germanic word "*bernan", which also means "to bring forth" or "to produce". In Old English, the word "born" was spelled "bern" or "bēarn", and it meant "to beget" or "to conceive". The past participle form of this verb, "born" or "bēarn", meant "being brought forth" or "having been born". Over time, the spelling and meaning of the word evolved, and today "born" refers to the act of giving birth to a child or the state of having been born.
