Morning Etymology
The Modern English words “morning” and “tomorrow” began in Middle English as morwening, developing into morwen, then morwe, and eventually morrow. English, unlike some other languages, has separate terms for “morning” and “tomorrow”, despite their common root. Other languages, like German, may use a single word – Morgen – to signify both “morning” and “tomorrow”.
Good Morning etymology
From Middle English gud mornynge (also as goode morne, gode morne), from Old English *gōdne morgen (“good morning”), an ellipsis for an expression such as “I wish you a good morning”, equivalent to good + morning. Compare West Frisian goeie moarn, Dutch goedemorgen, German guten Morgen, Danish god morgen, Swedish god morgon, Icelandic góðan morgunn.
Evening Definition
Evening is the period of time from the end of the afternoon to the beginning of night.[1][2] Exact time when evening begins and ends (as with night) depends on location and varies throughout the year. Its earliest part of a short period is evening twilight.
Evening etymology
The word is derived from the Old English ǣfnung, meaning ‘the coming of evening, sunset, time around sunset’, which originated from ‘æfnian’ meaning ‘become evening, grow toward evening’.
