The word "carpenter" has an Old English origin. It is derived from the Old English word "cearp" which means "to cut, chip, or plow". The word "carpenter" itself dates back to the late 14th century and refers to a skilled craftsman who works with wood. The term has its roots in the Proto-Germanic language, where "karpon" means "wagon" or "two-wheeled vehicle". Over time, the term "carpenter" evolved to specifically refer to a professional who constructs and repairs wooden structures and furniture.
