Etymology of HANDMADE

The word "handmade" originated from the combination of two words: "hand" and "made".

The word "hand" comes from the Old English word "hand" and can be traced back to the Proto-Germanic word "handuz". This word has been used to refer to the body part at the end of the arm that is used for grasping, holding, or manipulating objects.

The word "made" comes from the Old English word "macian", which means "to make, construct, or form". It has roots in the Proto-Germanic word "makōną", which signifies "to make" or "to construct".

When these two words are combined, it forms the term "handmade", which generally refers to something that is created or produced by hand, without the aid of machinery or automation.
