The origin of the word table

English[edit]

Alternative forms[edit]

  • tyebble (Geordie)

Etymology[edit]

A table (furniture)

A table of characters in the Arabic alphabet

From Middle English table, tabel, tabil, tabul, from Old English tabele, tabul, tablu, tabule, tabula (board); also as tæfl, tæfel, an early Germanic borrowing of Latin tabula (tablet, board, plank, chart). The sense of “piece of furniture” is from Old French table, of same Latin origin; Old English used bēod or bord instead for this meaning: see board. Doublet of tabula.
