Critic, referring to someone who passes judgment on something, was first recorded by Shakespeare in Love’s Labour’s Lost (1588), but we don’t know if the bard coined the word, which is based ultimately on a Greek word meaning the same. Shakespeare is said to have been the first to record over 1,700 words. |
