Etymology of FLIPPED

The word "flipped" is derived from the verb "flip". The term "flip" has a complex etymology and has evolved over time.

In its earliest form, "flip" originated in Old English as "flippian", which meant "to dance or leap lightly". It was related to the Dutch word "flippen", meaning "to jump", and the German word "flippen", which meant "to whirl or to spin".

Over time, the meaning of "flip" shifted. In the 16th century, it began to be used to describe the act of tossing something lightly or with a quick motion. By the 19th century, "flip" was also used to refer to a quick movement or a sudden change in direction.

In contemporary usage, "flipped" is often used as a slang term to describe a situation where something has been turned over or reversed.
