Today’s Wordle Etymology

The word witch derives from the Old English expression wicce (feminine) or wicca (masculine), which referred to a sorcerer or one who practices witchcraft. These terms are derived from the Proto-Germanic root *wikkô or *wikanmeaning “to bend” or “to twist.” This reflects the idea of ​​changing or influencing nature or reality, often through supernatural means.

Over time, the Old English terms evolved into Middle English as witchwhich could refer to both male and female practitioners, although the feminine connotation became dominant. The modern English spelling witch was standardized in the 16th century, largely influenced by the increased focus on female practitioners of witchcraft during the witch trials of the time.
