bootnoun
giày ống
/buːt/
The origin of the word "boot" is interesting. The word "boot" has its roots in Old English and Germanic languages. In Old English, the word "bōt" or "bot" meant "trunk" or "box", which referred to a container made of wood or leather. This sense of "boot" as a container has survived in modern English, as in a boot box or a cowboy's boot box. The meaning of "boot" as a type of footwear also emerged from the same Old English root. In the 15th century, the word "boot" referred to a type of covering or sheath for a horse's foot. Over time, the term "boot" came to be applied to a covering or sole for a human foot, resulting in the modern English meaning of "boot" as a type of shoe.
