Word origin

The term 'boarding' originated from the Old English word 'bord', which meant 'side of a ship'. Initially used in the context of ships, it later expanded to include other modes of transportation and accommodations. The concept of boarding schools emerged in the 18th century, referring to institutions where students live on campus. Boarding kennels for pets also became popular in the 20th century, offering temporary care for animals. Today, 'boarding' is widely used in various contexts related to travel, education, and pet care.
