Etymology

The word 'dish' originated from the Old French term 'dishe' which itself came from the Latin 'discus' meaning 'a plate' or 'a disc.' It evolved through uses related to the serving of food. Initially, 'dish' referred primarily to the container or vessel used to serve food. Over time, the verb form emerged, encompassing the action of placing food into such vessels. The extension of its meaning in informal contexts, such as to 'dish out' gossip or information, reflects the transition of the term from a physical action to a metaphorical one. This evolution showcases how language adapts and extends into new domains of use, maintaining relevance in contemporary dialogue.
