Definition of undefined

The word "bake" has its roots in Old English and is derived from the Proto-Germanic word "bakiz," which means "oven" or "cooking." This Proto-Germanic word is also related to the Proto-Indo-European root "bheg-", which means "to cook." In Old English, the word "bæcian" or "bącan" meant "to roast" or "to cook in a hot oven." Over time, the spelling of the word evolved to "bake," and its meaning expanded to include other methods of cooking, such as boiling and steaming. In Middle English (circa 1100-1500 AD), the word "bake" was used to describe the act of cooking food in an oven, as well as the food itself, such as bread or cake. Today, the word "bake" continues to be used in a variety of contexts, including cooking, baking, and even hair styling!
