Bum Word’s Dignified Historical Path Across Ages

The term bum, long viewed as vulgar in American usage, traces a dignified lineage. Originating in England as Humner more than two centuries ago, bummers peddled fish outside markets and were scorned by regular dealers. The word evolved to mean any dishonest person or habitual irregular. It appeared in 17th century English market by‑laws as Bumuinaree and reached the United States during California’s gold days before spreading east.
