/ˈtɪŋkə(r)//ˈtɪŋkər/The word "tinker" has an interesting history. It originated in the 14th century from the Old English word "tynkian," which means "to mend or repair." This term was likely derived from the Middle English word "tynk," meaning "a piece of metal or wooden substance used for making small repair." Over time, the verb "tinker" evolved to express the act of making small repairs or adjustments, often involving a degree of creativity and experimentation. In the 18th century, the term took on a new meaning, referring to someone who made or repaired clocks, watches, or other small mechanisms. Today, the word "tinker" is used more broadly to describe someone who enjoys tinkering with objects, whether for fun or to create something new. I hope that brief history was enlightening!
