Etymology
The word 'tip' originated in the early 18th century, from the sense 'to give a gratuity' and is believed to be a shortening of the word 'tipple,' meaning to give a drink or a gratuity. Over time, its meaning expanded to include a piece of advice or useful information. The usage of 'tip' in the context of advice became popular in the mid-19th century.
