Etymology
The word 'flied' is derived from the Old English 'flฤogan', which means to fly or to move through the air. Its historical roots can be traced back to the Proto-Germanic *flugan, which is also the ancestor of similar words in other Germanic languages, such as the Dutch 'vliegen' and the German 'fliegen'. Over time, the standard past tense of 'to fly' evolved into 'flew', which is derived from the Middle English 'flou', influenced by various phonetic changes. Despite 'flied' being accepted in certain dialects and informal usage, it is not recognized in standard English grammar and has largely fallen out of favor among the majority of English speakers. The historical usage of 'flied' often highlights the tensions between historical dialect forms and the standardized aspects of the English language.
