Word origin

The word 'approving' originates from the verb 'approve', which comes from the Old French 'aprover', meaning 'to approve, agree to', which in turn comes from the Latin 'approbare', with 'ad-' (to) + 'probare' (to try, approve). The sense of 'expressing a favorable opinion' dates back to the late 15th century.
