[Middle English origine, ancestry, from Latin orīgō, orīgin-, from orīrī, to arise, be born.]

Synonyms: origin, inception, source, root. These nouns signify the point at which something originates. Origin is the point at which something comes into existence: The origins of some words are unknown. "Man with all his noble qualities . . . still bears in his bodily frame the indelible stamp of his lowly origin" (Charles Darwin). When origin refers to people, it means parentage or ancestry: "He came . . . of mixed French and Scottish origin" (Charlotte Brontë). Inception is the beginning, as of an action or process: Between the inception of the litigation and its final disposition the plaintiff's first attorney retired. Source can refer to the point of origin of a stream or a river: "the Alpine sources of the Rhine" (John Foster Kirk). In another sense the term signifies the point at which something springs into being or from which it derives or is obtained: "one great original source of revenue . . . the wages of labor" (Adam Smith). "The mysterious . . . is the source of all true art and science" (Albert Einstein). Root often denotes what is considered the fundamental cause of or basic reason for something: "Lack of money is the root of all evil" (George Bernard Shaw). "Most of the problems a President has to face have their roots in the past" (Harry S. Truman).
