Etymology

The word 'bloom' originated from the Old Norse word 'blóm', which means 'flower'. It entered the English language in the late 14th century and has been used to describe the flowering state of plants since then. Over time, the term expanded beyond botany to include metaphoric uses, representing states of thriving, success, or coming into one's full potential. The transformation into 'bloomed' occurred as English verbs often adapt by adding e-d or t for their past forms, making this a common evolution in the language.
