Etymology
The word 'depot' originated in French, from the Old French word 'depot', meaning 'a deposit or storehouse'. It entered the English language in the late 18th century. Initially used in a military context to refer to a place where military supplies were stored, the term later expanded to include commercial storage facilities and transportation stations.
