Word: sterling Word origin: Middle English: probably from steorra ‘star’ + -ling (because some early Norman pennies bore a small star). Until recently one popular theory was that the coin was originally made by Easterling moneyers (from the ‘eastern’ Hanse towns), but the stressed first syllable would not have been dropped. Phonetic: ˈstəːlɪŋ Listen:
British money. Example: prices in sterling are shown
short for sterling silver. Example: a sterling spoon
(of a person or their work or qualities) excellent or valuable. Example: this organization does sterling work for youngsters
