Word origin

The origin of the word 'stud' can be traced back to the Old English word 'stลd', which meant 'a place where horses are kept for breeding'. Over time, the meaning evolved to refer to a male horse kept for breeding, and eventually to a male animal used for breeding in general. In the 19th century, the term 'stud' also came to be used to refer to a place where breeding animals are kept. The modern usage of 'stud' to refer to a student or a fastening device emerged later, reflecting the evolution of language.
