This is a tool that allows you to search for the origin of a word and also wiew its origin tree. It uses the ety-python to get the origin of a word, which in turn sources data from Gerard de Melo's Etymological Wordnet, which is mostly mined from Wiktionary.

• Default Search: Returns the words from which the word is directly derived.
• Recursive Search: Returns the words from which the word is derived, with recursively searching through the database.
• View Etymological Tree: Shows the words from which the word originates, in a tree form.
