Etymology of BIKINGS

The word "bikings" is derived from the noun "bike", which is a shortened form of "bicycle". The etymology of "bicycle" can be traced back to the early 19th century when the French word "vélocipède" was coined. "Vélocipède" combined the Latin words "velox" (meaning swift) and "pedis" (meaning foot). Over time, "vélocipède" evolved into "velocipede" in English, referring to an early form of bicycle propelled by foot power. Eventually, "bike" emerged as a shorter, colloquial term for bicycle, and "bikings" was created as its corresponding verb form.
