Word origin

The word 'assemblage' originated from the French word 'assembler', which means 'to assemble'. It first appeared in English in the late 17th century. Over time, 'assemblage' has been used in various contexts, from art to biology, to describe the act of putting together disparate elements to create a cohesive whole.
