Etymology of GARDENING

The word "gardening" has its origins in the Middle English term "gardin", which is derived from the Old English word "geard" or "gyrd". "Geard" referred to an enclosed space, yard, or garden, while "gyrd" meant an enclosure or fenced area. In turn, these Old English words can be traced back to the Proto-Germanic word "gardaz", meaning a fence or enclosure. The term "gardening" emerged in the late 14th century, incorporating the suffix "-ing", denoting an action or process, to describe the act or practice of cultivating or tending to a garden or enclosed space.
