Origin of the word cheers

The word "cheers" has roots in the Old English word "cēran," meaning "to turn" or "to twist." This likely evolved into the Middle English word "chere" meaning "face" or "countenance," and eventually into "cheer" meaning "joy" or "good spirits." Over time, "cheer" became associated with expressions of happiness, such as a toast. The phrase "to your good cheer" evolved into "cheers," signifying a shared expression of good wishes and enjoyment.
