/ˈbiːhaɪv//ˈbiːhaɪv/

The word "beehive" comes from the Old English word "bēhyfe," which literally means "bee-house." It's a combination of the words "bēo" (bee) and "hyf" (house, dwelling). This makes sense, as the word describes the dwelling place of bees. The word "beehive" has been used to describe the home of honeybees since the early Middle Ages, and the term has evolved to also describe any structure resembling a beehive, including a bustling, crowded place or even a hairstyle.
