Etymology
The word 'cascaded' derives from the Latin verb 'cascare', meaning 'to fall'. This evolved into the Italian 'cascare', which also means 'to fall'. Originally, it meant a fall of water or anything flowing downwards. The modern English usage began appearing around the late 19th century, particularly in environmental and hydrological contexts to describe the movement of water over a range of surfaces. Over time, its application has expanded to include figurative uses, especially in technology and systems theory, where processes are described as cascading similar to the flow of water.
