Etymology of WAST OF

The phrase "wast of" does not have a specific etymology since it is not a widely recognized expression or word in modern English. However, if you are referring to the word "waste", it has a Middle English origin. The word can be traced back to the Old North French word "waster", meaning "to lay waste" or "to destroy". It eventually made its way into Middle English with the same meaning. Over time, the term "waste" evolved to encompass various related meanings such as "to use something in a careless or extravagant manner", as well as referring to barren or uncultivated land.
