823: vagabond Mar 10, 2017

The Proto-Indoeuropean word giving English 'wander' also lend to a slew of other terms, which you can see more on here: 'weather' 'wander' and 'wind'. Among these words of mostly Germanic origin, the Latinate 'vagabond' managed to enter English through Old French. While in Latin, 'vagabundus' meant, 'man who wanders', in Middle English the term originally  denoted a criminal. The concept then extended to someone without a home, particularly a loner.
