e. Old French

The original language in which this term was derived razor from is the old French. The word origin was “raser” in old French which meant to “shave closely” until it evolved into another word in the old French language spelled as “rasor”. And then during in the Middle English languages it was restructured and reshaped again as razor and today razor and also the word raze is used. Current definition of the word razor is an instrument that is prominently used to get rid of excess body or face hair
