wrong
UK: rɒŋ | US: rɔːŋ
adj. not correct or true; incorrect
adj. unjust, dishonest, or immoral
n. an unjust or immoral action
vt. to treat someone unfairly or unjustly
The word "wrong" originates from Old English wrang, meaning "twisted, crooked, unjust." The morpheme wr- (related to twisting) appears in other English words like "wrench" and "wry," while -ong is linked to the concept of angle or direction. Over time, the literal sense of "twisted" evolved metaphorically to mean "incorrect" or "unjust," reflecting how deviation from straightness (physical or moral) came to symbolize error or injustice.
