The color eventually came to be associated with Protestantism, as a result of the participation by the House of Orange on the Protestant side in the French Wars of Religion, the Irish campaigns, and the Dutch Eighty Years' War. Some time after the sixteenth century, though, the color orange was adopted as a canting symbol of the House of Orange-Nassau. The Principality of Orange was named for this place and not for the color. The Roman-Celtic settlement was founded in 36 or 35 BC and originally named Arausio, after a Celtic water god. The place name Orange has a separate etymology. The initial n was lost through rebracketing in Italian and French, though some varieties of Arabic lost the n earlier. From there the word entered Persian نارنگ nārang and then Arabic نارنج nāranj. The word ultimately derives from a Dravidian language – possibly Tamil நாரம் nāram or Telugu నారింజ nāriṃja or Malayalam നാരങ്ങ nāraŋŋa - via Sanskrit नारङ्ग nāraṅgaḥ "orange tree".
Although pume orenge is attested earlier than melarancio in available written sources, lexicographers believe that the Italian word is actually older. It is generally thought that Old French calqued the Italian melarancio ("fruit of the orange tree", with mela "fruit") as pume orenge (with pume "fruit"). Other sources cite the first recorded use as 1512, in a will now filed with the Public Record Office. The first recorded use of orange as a colour name in English was in 1502, in a description of clothing purchased for Margaret Tudor. The earliest recorded use of the word in English is from the 13th century and referred to the fruit.

The definitions are sourced from the famous and open-source WordNet database, so a huge thanks to the many contributors for creating such an awesome free resource. In case you didn't notice, you can click on words in the search results and you'll be presented with the definition of that word (if available). For those interested, I also developed Describing Words which helps you find adjectives and interesting descriptors for things (e.g. So this project, Reverse Dictionary, is meant to go hand-in-hand with Related Words to act as a word-finding and brainstorming toolset. That project is closer to a thesaurus in the sense that it returns synonyms for a word (or short phrase) query, but it also returns many broadly related words that aren't included in thesauri. I made this tool after working on Related Words which is a very similar tool, except it uses a bunch of algorithms and multiple databases to find similar words to a search query. So in a sense, this tool is a "search engine for words", or a sentence to word converter.
It acts a lot like a thesaurus except that it allows you to search with a definition, rather than a single word. The engine has indexed several million definitions so far, and at this stage it's starting to give consistently good results (though it may return weird results sometimes). For example, if you type something like "longing for a time in the past", then the engine will return "nostalgia". It simply looks through tonnes of dictionary definitions and grabs the ones that most closely match your search query. The way Reverse Dictionary works is pretty simple.
