A Concise Etymological Dictionary of the English Language is a reference book written by Walter W. Skeat. The book provides a comprehensive guide to the origins of English words, tracing them back to their earliest known roots and exploring their development over time. It covers a wide range of topics, including the influence of Latin and Greek on the English language, the impact of historical events on vocabulary, and the evolution of spelling and pronunciation. The dictionary is organized alphabetically, making it easy to find definitions and etymologies for specific words. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and evolution of the English language, from linguists and academics to writers and language enthusiasts.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
