Etymology

The word 'chip' traces its origins to the Old English 'cippian', which meant 'to cut or split off'. This concept has evolved over the centuries into various forms, including its use in woodworking and manufacturing, where 'chip' has come to denote the removal of small pieces from a larger whole. The verb form 'chip' has been in use since at least the 15th century, and its variations like 'chipped' and 'chippered' developed as the language evolved. The influence of Germanic languages helped to shape the word's modern meanings, reflecting its association with tools and craftsmanship. Over time, chippered has also found its place in colloquial expressions, expanding its usage beyond physical contexts to metaphorical ones, such as 'chippered feelings', indicating a sense of diminished spirits.
