The word "warmth" originated from the Middle English word "warme" (meaning warm) in the early 13th century. It can be traced back to the Old English word "wearm" (meaning warm) and the Proto-Germanic word "warmaz". This Proto-Germanic word is derived from the Proto-Indo-European root "gʷʰer-", which means heat or warmth. It is also related to words in other Germanic languages such as the Old Norse "varmr" and the Gothic "warms".
