Etymology

The word 'morrow' originates from the Old English term 'morgen,' which means morning. This term has Proto-Germanic roots, akin to the Old High German 'murgen' and the Dutch 'morgen.' Initially, 'morrow' was used to signify the morning, but over time, its meaning expanded to encompass the day following the current day. It has largely fallen out of common use in contemporary English, remaining mostly in literary or poetic contexts. It reflects an antiquated form of speech that evokes a bygone era, often used by classic poets and playwrights. The transformation of the word over time illustrates the evolution of language as social usage changes and words drift in meaning and commonality.
