VOW Meaning and Definition

  1. A vow is a solemn and formal promise or commitment made by an individual to oneself or to another person or entity. It is a declaration of one's intentions or determination to carry out a specific action or to adhere to a specific way of life. Vows are often undertaken during important or significant occasions, such as weddings, religious ceremonies, or initiation rituals.

    In the context of marriage, a vow represents a binding and enduring promise between two individuals to love, honor, and support each other for the rest of their lives. It is a verbal and emotional contract that signifies the deep commitment and loyalty to one's partner. When one takes a vow, they pledge to uphold certain principles, virtues, or moral values that are integral to the relationship or partnership.

    Moreover, vows can also be made in religious or spiritual settings, where individuals dedicate themselves to a higher power, divinity, or religious tenets. These vows often involve renouncing certain behaviors, embracing specific practices, or dedicating oneself entirely to the service of a religious order or organization.

    Vows can vary in their solemnity and formality, but they always carry a weight of obligation and responsibility. Breaking a vow is generally seen as a betrayal of trust and may result in serious consequences. Vows are meant to be lasting and enduring, establishing a framework for action and behavior that is intended to persist over time.

  2. • A solemn promise made to God; a solemn engagement to one's self to do something hereafter; a formal promise of love or matrimony.
    • To consecrate or set apart to God by solemn promise; to make a solemn promise.

Etymology of VOW

The word "vow" has an English origin and can be traced back to the Old English word "fōn" which means "to take, capture, or receive". Over time, it evolved into the Middle English word "vowen" or "vowien" which meant "to solemnly promise" or "to dedicate oneself to". The current spelling "vow" became standardized in the early 17th century. The term "vow" has cognates in various Germanic languages, such as the Old High German "fuohan" and Old Norse "fá", which also carry the meaning of taking or receiving something.
