Etymology

The word 'echoing' originates from the Greek word 'ฤ“khล', meaning 'sound reflected'. The concept of echoes has fascinated humans for centuries, leading to scientific studies on sound waves and acoustics. In literature, echoes are often used symbolically to represent repetition, reflection, or the lasting impact of past events. The term 'echoing' has evolved to encompass both the physical reverberation of sound and the metaphorical repetition of words or actions.
