Etymology
The word 'discovered' originates from the Middle English word 'discoveren', which came from the Old French word 'descovrir', meaning 'uncover, reveal'. The prefix 'dis-' implies a reversal of action, while 'cover' suggests something hidden or concealed. The concept of discovery has been fundamental to human progress, leading to new inventions, exploration, and understanding of the world.
