Word origin

The word 'demonstrated' comes from the Latin word 'demonstratus', the past participle of 'demonstrare', which means 'to point out' or 'to show'. The term has been used in English since the 16th century, originally in the sense of 'to point out' or 'to show evidence of'. Over time, its meaning has expanded to include the idea of proving or making clear by reasoning or evidence.
