Word origin
The word 'wane' originated from the Old English word 'wanian', meaning to lessen or diminish. It has been used in the English language for centuries to describe the gradual decrease or decline of something. The concept of waxing and waning, often associated with the phases of the moon, has influenced the usage of 'wane' to convey the idea of diminishing or fading over time.
