Etymology of EVERYWHITHER

The word "everywhither" is derived from Middle English, specifically the Old English phrase "æghwæðer hþær" which means "each [person] to there". Over time, the phrase underwent changes due to phonetic shifts and linguistic modifications, leading to its current form. The word "hþær" eventually transformed into "whither", meaning "to where". Similarly, "æghwæðer" evolved into "every", referring to all or each. "Everywhither" combines these two components to form a word that means "everywhere" or "to every place". However, it is now considered a rarely used or archaic term.
