Word origin

The word 'banked' is derived from the noun 'bank', which has its origins in the Italian word 'banco', meaning 'bench'. In medieval times, money changers conducted their business on benches in marketplaces, which eventually evolved into the modern concept of a bank. The verb 'to bank' in its financial sense emerged in the late 14th century, denoting the act of keeping money in a bank. The aviation use of the term 'banked' came about in the early 20th century, as aviation became more popular and the need for precise terminology became necessary for pilots and navigators. The evolution of the word reflects significant developments in both finance and aviation, demonstrating the dynamic nature of language influenced by societal changes.
