Etymology

The word 'mash' has origins in Old English 'masc' and Proto-Germanic 'mask-' meaning to mix or crush. Over time, it evolved to refer to a mixture of ingredients, particularly in the context of food. In the case of the game 'mash', it likely originated as a shortened form of 'mansion, apartment, shack, house', which was a popular game among children in the 1970s and 1980s.
