   Where does the word'mother' come from?

   • The modern English ‘mother’ comes from the Old English term modor. As such, it is also where many of our informal terms for mothers come from, from ‘mommy’ and ‘mumsy’ to ‘ma’ and ‘maw’. Interestingly, though, these words may have even older origins. The word ‘mama’ appears in some form in dozens of languages, including Mandarin, Hindi and Arabic.

The same conclusion has been reached in dozens of other research cases too.

   Why do people say'mom' instead of'mother'?

   • ‘Mama’ is common in the southern states and ‘mother’ more popular on the East Coast, but the spelling of ‘mom’ or ‘mommy’ prevails. Why this is the case is a little harder to ascertain. Folk from the West Midlands claim that it was down to families migrating to the US and bringing their spelling of ‘mom’ with them.
