Etymology

The word 'carry' is derived from the Old French word 'carier', which comes from the Latin word 'carriare', meaning 'to convey in a vehicle'. This Latin term is rooted in 'carrus', meaning 'wagon' or 'cart'. The evolution of the word reflects its importance in language as societies began to engage in trade and transport goods over distances. As early as the 15th century, the term began to be used more broadly, covering not only the act of physically moving objects but also metaphorical usages such as 'carrying a message' or 'carrying a burden'. The transition from Old French to Middle English solidified its place in the English lexicon. Throughout history, the various forms and uses of 'carry' have adapted, but the core meaning of support and movement remains integral to its definition.
