English[edit]

Etymology[edit]

From Middle English blenden, either from Old English blandan, blondan, ġeblandan, ġeblendan[1] or from Old Norse blanda (to blend, mix)[2] (which was originally a strong verb with the present-tense stem blend[3]; compare blendingr (a blending, a mixture; a half-breed)[4]), whence also Danish blande, or from a blend of the Old English and Old Norse terms; both ultimately from Proto-Germanic *blandaną (to blend; mix; combine).[5] Compare Middle Dutch blanden (to mix), Gothic 𐌱𐌻𐌰𐌽𐌳𐌰𐌽 (blandan), Old Church Slavonic блєсти (blesti, to go astray).

      Blends, also known as portmanteau words, are not an original part of English. That is, none occur in Old or Middle English, nor even in Elizabethan English, with the earliest known example being the rare and now obsolete term tomaxe, a blend of tomahawk and axe.
