Word origin

The word 'accordance' originated from Middle English 'acordaunce', which came from Old French 'acorder' meaning 'bring to an agreement'. The term has been used since the 14th century to denote agreement or harmony between different entities, whether in relation to rules, legal documents, or musical compositions. Over time, 'accordance' has become a commonly used term to express the concept of being in agreement or conformity with a set standard or expectation.
