Etymology
The word 'tot' originates from the early 19th century, derived from the Old Norse word 'tota,' meaning 'to carry or bear.' Over time, 'tot' evolved in English usage to represent the action of carrying or moving objects, especially in a casual context. The transformation into 'totted' represents the regular past tense formation typical in English grammar. This reflects the simplicity and lightheartedness often associated with the act of carrying small items. The informal nature of the word aligns with its historical usage in everyday speech, signifying nonchalant or simple actions. As language evolves, 'totted' has maintained its playful connotation, being employed primarily in spoken English among friends or in casual writing.
