Thesaurus & Semantic Spectrum
Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
The word shopping combines the Old English 'scoppan' (to shop) with the suffix '-ing', while spree originates in the early 19th century from dialectal English or Irish meaning a frolic, carouse, or bout of excessive activity. Combined by the mid-19th century, the phrase evolved from general bouts of indulgence to specifically designate a continuous, exuberant period of buying goods.
