Ετυμολογία (Αγγλικός)

Κληρονομήθηκε από Μέσα Αγγλικά: hauedwei

Κληρονομήθηκε από Παλαιά Αγγλικά: hēafodweġ

In summary

Partly from Middle English hauedwei, from Old English hēafodweġ (“head-road, main-road”); partly as a shortening of ahead-way, the source of the nautical sense. By surface analysis, head + way.
