Etymology

The word 'enamoured' comes from the Old French word 'enamourer', which means 'to inflame with love'. This etymology can be traced back to the Latin word 'amor', which means 'love'. The prefix 'en-' in Old French is used to indicate a transformation or to bring into a state, therefore 'enamoured' essentially means 'to be brought into the state of love'. In English literature, the term has been used since the 14th century to describe a profound sense of affection. The romantic undertones of 'enamoured' can be seen in various literary contexts, where it often evokes feelings of longing and deep emotional connection between individuals.
