Etymology
The word 'broom' originates from the Old English 'brลm', which refers to a plant used for making brooms. The term has Germanic roots, similar to the Dutch 'brem' and German 'Brombeer', which also relate to the broom plant. Historically, brooms have been essential tools for cleaning, dating back to ancient civilizations where people crafted them from twigs and branches. The act of brooming evolved as the tool became more common, symbolizing cleanliness and order. Over time, the use of brooms extended beyond physical cleaning to represent metaphorical cleaning in language and culture, such as 'brooming away negativity' or 'sweeping issues under the rug'.
