Where does the word "chisel" come from?
"Chisel" as a noun meaning "a tool with a cutting edge" probably comes from the Latincaedere, "to cut," appearing in the early 1300s. The verb form meaning "to break, cut, or gouge with a chisel" comes from the noun and appears around 1500; the meaning "to cheat or defraud" appears in 1808. The OED lists 15 different meanings for the word - 9 nouns and 6 verbs. The noun form acquires the meaning "a paintbrush" (now obsolete) in 1500, "bran or whole meal" in 1607, "a tool for cutting bone" in 1662, and "a type of shoe with a squared toe" in 1961. The verb form gains the meaning "to press in a cheese vat" in 1820, and "to butt in or intrude" in 1936. The earliest written use of the verb is in 1517, in the writings of Stephen Hawes, poet.
