Etymology

The term 'conciliated' derived from the Latin verb 'conciliāre', which means 'to bring together, unite or win over'. The prefix 'con-' means 'together' and 'ciliāre' relates to the act of calling or summoning. Initially used in the English language in the late 14th century, it evolved to mean the act of easing tensions and fostering goodwill between conflicting parties. Over time, the term has been adopted into various fields such as law, conflict resolution, and diplomacy, reflecting its essential role in maintaining social harmony and facilitating negotiations.
