Word origin
The word 'ammo' is a shortened form of 'ammunition', which comes from the French word 'munition', meaning military supplies. The use of ammunition dates back to the 15th century when gunpowder weapons became common in warfare. Over time, the term 'ammo' has evolved to not only refer to physical projectiles but also to metaphorical ammunition used in debates or discussions.
