Usage Examples

Etymology

English *speech* comes from Old English *spǣċ* “talk, discourse,” which in turn is derived from the Proto‑Germanic *spēkʰiz, itself linked to the Proto‑Indo‑European root *spei‑ “to speak.” The term survived the Great Vowel Shift and Middle English spelling changes, preserving its core sense of oral discourse. It is cognate with German *Sprechen* and Dutch *spreken*, reflecting its shared Germanic lineage.
