Etymology
The word 'dub' has a rich history, with its origins in Old English and Middle English. In Old English, 'dubbian' meant 'to strike' or 'to confer knighthood by the ceremony of touching the shoulder with a sword'. The usage of 'dub' to mean 'to give a title to a recorded sound' emerged in the 1960s in the context of music production. Over time, 'dub' has evolved to encompass meanings related to film, music, and recording.
