"Hove" itself comes from Old English "hofian", meaning to wait, tarry, or remain suspended. The term is related to the Old Norse "hfva", meaning to lift or raise. Over time, "hover" came to mean staying in one place in the air, maintaining a position without moving significantly.Let me know how you fared with your Wordle today on Twitter, Instagram or Facebook.
