Etymology

The word 'caroled' derives from the noun 'carol,' which dates back to the 14th century. Its origin can be traced to the Old French 'carole,' which means a circular dance accompanied by song. The term 'carol' itself is thought to come from the Latin word 'carellus,' a diminutive of 'cara,' meaning 'little song.' Initially, carols were not exclusively linked to Christmas; they were sung at various celebrations and festivities. It wasn't until the 19th century that caroling became predominantly associated with Christmas, evolving into a cherished holiday tradition in many cultures. This transformation was significant in popularizing the act of singing in groups to herald the joys of the season, spreading goodwill and merriment through music.
