Etymology

The word 'next' originated from the Old English word 'neahst', which means 'nearest'. Over time, it evolved to 'next' in Middle English. The concept of proximity or adjacency has been a fundamental aspect of human language and communication, leading to the widespread use of words like 'next' to describe spatial relationships.
