Bodywork: Uncovering Word Origins
I need help with a project.
Does anyone know where the term bodywork originated and when it was first used?
Pls provide proper documentation when possible as your response may be used in a scholarly publication.
And yes, I'm a closet wordsmith.

Thanks Jenny,
You are on the ball!!!
I wonder about the 1908 pub date. Maybe it was the date of first edition.
Can you find out what edition of the Merriam-Webster Unabridged Collegiate dictionary this definition came from?
The edition # would help with citing the reference.
Let me know if you find out more about the word origin.
