Etymology
The word 'correspond' originated from the Latin word 'correspondere', which means 'to be in agreement, to be in harmony'. It first appeared in English in the late 16th century. Over time, the word has evolved to encompass both the act of communication by exchanging letters or messages, as well as the idea of matching or being similar in some way.
