Etymology of SNEAKED

The word "sneaked" is the past tense and past participle form of the verb "sneak". The etymology of "sneak" stems from Old English "snīcan", which originally meant "to creep" or "to crawl". This Old English word comes from Proto-Germanic "sneikaną", meaning "to crawl" or "to creep". The modern sense of "sneak", referring to moving silently or stealthily, arose in Middle English, influenced by Norse and Low German languages. Over time, "sneak" evolved, and "sneaked" became the standard past tense and past participle form, while some dialects also use "snuck" as an alternative form.
