What is the origin and context of use of 'timber'?
The interjection "timber" has its origins in the logging and forestry industry, where it is commonly used as a safety warning to alert others that a tree is being cut down and is about to fall. The practice of shouting "timber" serves to warn those nearby to move out of the way to avoid being struck by the falling tree.
