Etymology of SHIPPED

The word "shipped" is derived from the Old English word "scipian" which means "to put in a ship". This word can be traced back to the Proto-Germanic word "skipōną" and ultimately to the Proto-Indo-European root "skei-", meaning "to cut, split, divide". In the context of shipping, the term originally referred to loading goods onto a ship or transferring them from one place to another by sea. Over time, "shipped" has come to encompass various meanings, including the transportation of goods or products through any mode of transportation, not just by ship.
