古英语中的 todæge, to dæge 意为“在(这一)天”,由 to “在,于”(见 to)和 dæge 构成,后者是 dæg “天”的与格形式(见 day)。意为“现代时代”始于公元1300年左右。作为名词出现于1530年代。通常在16世纪之前写作两个单词,之后通常写作 to-day,直到20世纪初。
其他日耳曼语中也存在类似的结构,比如荷兰语的 van daag “从今天起”,丹麦语和瑞典语的 i dag “在白天”。德语的 heute 源自古高地德语的 hiutu,来自原始日耳曼语的 *hiu tagu “在(这一)天”,第一个成分来自 PIE 代词词干 *ki-,由拉丁语的 cis “在这一边”代表。
The first known use of today was before the 12th century
