Word origin

The word 'divulge' originated from the Latin word 'divulgare', which means 'to publish abroad, make common'. It entered the English language in the late 15th century, originally used in the context of making something known to the public. Over time, its meaning evolved to include the act of revealing or disclosing private or sensitive information.
