Douglas Harper's Etymology Online - one of the best etymological dictionaries for the English Language - takes its place with an official Windows 8 application.

More than 37,000 cross-referenced word histories describe the wheel ruts of the English language, letting you browse through a picture of how our words sounded and what they meant, hundreds - sometimes thousands - of years ago.

This version is fully offline, and needs no internet connection to run. We will keep the dictionary up to date, as the dictionary progresses nearly daily.

Instantaneous search and a useful "snap" interface mean this tool is also great for work alongside your word processor.
