Etymology
The term 'bullying' derives from the word 'bully', which originally meant 'a sweetheart' in the 16th century and was used affectionately. The meaning shifted over time, and by the late 17th century, it began to refer to someone who is cruel or abusive. The modern understanding of bullying as a pattern of aggressive behavior that is intentional and involves an imbalance of power emerged in the late 20th century, particularly in relation to school environments. This led to increased awareness and discussions about the impacts of bullying and the need for anti-bullying policies in educational institutions and workplaces alike.
