Word origin

The word 'mosey' is believed to have originated in the United States during the 19th century. It is thought to be a variation of the dialectical term 'mozy', which means to move slowly or aimlessly. The etymology is somewhat obscure, but it may be related to the word 'mosey' which came from a combination of words reflecting leisurely movement or wandering about without a specific purpose. This leisurely sense of movement has since become a common colloquial phrase, capturing the essence of a relaxed pace in everyday life.
