Origin of 'endorsing'

The word 'endorse' originated in the 16th century from the Latin word 'indorsare', which means 'to write on the back'. Originally used in the context of signing the back of a document to transfer ownership, the meaning has evolved to include publicly supporting or recommending something. The modern business sense of endorsing products or services gained popularity in the 20th century with the rise of advertising and celebrity endorsements.
