From Middle English til, from Northern Old English til, from or akin to Old Norse til (to, till); both from Proto-Germanic *til (to, toward), from Proto-Germanic *tilą (planned point in time). Not a contraction of until; rather, until comes from till with the prefix un- (against; toward; up to) also found in unto. Cognate with til, til, till, til. Also related to til, Ziel, 𐍄𐌹𐌻.
