Etymology of WENT WAY

The word "went" is the past tense of the verb "go", which can be traced back to the Old English word "gān". In Old English, the word "gān" was widely used to mean "to move or travel from one place to another". Over time, "gān" evolved and eventually became "go" in Modern English.

The word "way" has a separate etymology and can be traced back to the Old English word "weg". "Weg" meant a path, a journey, or a manner of going. It is related to the Old High German word "weg" and the Dutch word "weg", all having similar meanings.
