OriginEarly 19th century: earlier (early 17th century) as gyration, from Latin gyrat- 'revolved', from the verb gyrare, from Greek guros 'a ring'. The Greek word guros meaning ‘a ring’ is the base of English gyrate. This passed into Latin as gyrare ‘to revolve’. Different as it may seem, to veer (late 16th century) is thought to be from the same source. It comes directly from French virer which is thought to be an alteration of gyrare. The original use in English was nautical in reference to the wind, meaning ‘change gradually’; it came to mean ‘change course’ from the early 17th century.
