Etymology of BROACH-TURNER

The term "broach-turner" is a somewhat archaic term that is not commonly used in modern English. However, its etymology can be traced back to its two constituent parts: "broach" and "turner".

The word "broach" dates back to Middle English and comes from the Old French word "broche", which means "spit" or "pointed tool". In English, it initially referred to a skewer used for roasting meat over an open fire. Over time, the term "broach" came to encompass other piercing or opening tools, such as a tool used for tapping barrels or casks.

The word "turner" has its origins in the Old English word "tornian", which means "to turn or rotate". In this context, "turner" refers to someone who turns or rotates something, often using a lathe or other tools.
