Thesaurus & Semantic Spectrum
Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
Derived from the Old Norse word 'kið', meaning a young goat, which entered Middle English around the 13th century. By the late 16th century, the term began to be used informally to refer to human children, a usage that eventually became standard and vastly more common than the original animal sense.
