Etymology of OVERMASTER

The word "overmaster" dates back to the late 16th century and is derived from the combination of two words: "over" and "master".

The term "over" comes from the Old English word "ofer", which means "above" or "beyond". It has its roots in the Proto-Germanic language, where "ubera" meant "over" or "across". This word evolved into "over" in Middle English.

The word "master" has its origins in the Latin word "magister", which translates to "chief" or "ruler". This eventually made its way into Old English as "mægister" and later "magister" in Middle English.

When combined, "over" and "master" create the verb "overmaster", which means to overpower or gain control over someone or something.
