Origin of the word rage

The word "rage" has a rich history dating back to Old English. The term "rage" was derived from the Old English word "rægan", which means "to shout" or "to roar". In Middle English (circa 1100-1500), the word evolved to "rage", meaning "to be angry" or "to be enraged". The term was often used in relation to intense emotions, such as fury, anger, or fury. In modern English, "rage" typically connotes a strong, uncontrollable, and often violent or destructive emotional response, such as road rage or the Götterdämmerung-like fury provoked by a particularly vicious meme.
