Etymology:
Neap: from Middle English nepe, from Old English nep, of uncertain origin. Possibly related to Old English nebb "beak," from Proto-Indo-European *(s)nebh-.
Meaning:
1. (of a tide) Occurring shortly after the first or third quarter of the moon, when the difference between high and low water is smallest.
2. (of a person) Lacking vitality, energy, or enthusiasm; feeble.
Origin:
The origin of the word "neap" is uncertain. One theory is that it is derived from Old English nep, meaning "face" or "nose." This is because neap tides have a flattish, "faceless" appearance. Another theory is that it is related to Old English nebb, meaning "beak." This is because neap tides resemble the beak of a swan. However, there is no definitive evidence to support either of these theories.
