Definitions and meaning of goth

goth

Etymology

From gothic rock, first used by John Stickney in reference to The Doors in 1967 and used by the late 1970s to describe the musical scene that gave rise to the goth subculture, both from a supposed aesthetic similarity to dark and moody 19th century gothic fiction and earlier gothic art and architecture, from Late Latin gothicus (Gothic, barbaric), from Ancient Greek Γοτθικός (Gotthikós), from Ancient Greek Γότθοι (Gótthoi, Goths) + -ικός (-ikós, -ic), proposed to derive from unattested Gothic *𐌲𐌿𐍄𐌰 (*guta).

Pronunciation

  • (UK) IPA(key): /ɡɒθ/
  • (US, Canada) IPA(key): /ɡɑθ/
