Etymology
The origin of the phrase 'deal with' can be traced back to Middle English, where 'deal' meant 'to divide or distribute.' Over time, it evolved to encompass the idea of managing or handling various situations. The addition of 'with' emphasizes the act of addressing or confronting something. Today, 'deal with' is commonly used in both business and social contexts to describe the act of managing, handling, or interacting with different situations or people.
