Etimología (Inglés)

Heredado de inglés medio: overnyght

Heredado de inglés antiguo: ofer niht

In summary

Inherited from Middle English overnyght, from Old English ofer niht (“through the night, overnight”), equivalent to over + night. Verbal use (late 19th c.) may have been influenced by German übernachten (16th c.), though it could also have developed independently.
