Additional Information
Etymology
1. O.E. flod "a flowing of water, river, sea, flood," from P.Gmc. *flothuz (cf. O.Fris. flod, O.N. floð, M.Du. vloet, Ger. Flut, Goth. fiodus), from PIE verbal stem *plo-/*pleu- "flow, float" (cf. Gk. ploein "to float, swim," plotos "floating, navigable"). The verb is first attested 1663. Floodgate (c.1225) is earlier recorded in the fig. sense (especially with reference to tears or rain) than in the literal sense (1440).
2. From Middle English flod, from Old English flōd, from Proto-West Germanic *flōdu, from Proto-Germanic *flōduz, from *plew- (“to flow”). Cognate with Scots flude, fluid, Saterland Frisian Floud, Dutch vloed, German Flut, Danish, Norwegian Bokmål, Norwegian Nynorsk, and Swedish flod, Icelandic flóð, and Gothic 𐍆𐌻𐍉𐌳𐌿𐍃 (flōdus).
