Etymology of WASHEST

The word "washest" is derived from the Old English word "wascan", which means "to wash". The Middle English form of the word was "waschen", and over time, it developed into "washen" in early modern English. The addition of the "-t" at the end of the word is the past participle ending in Middle English, which indicates completion of the action. Therefore, "washt" came to be used as the past tense and past participle form of "wash". Over the years, it gradually evolved into "washed" in modern English, while "washt" fell out of use and is now a rare or archaic term.
