Word origin
The word 'ensemble' originated from French in the mid-18th century, derived from the Old French word 'ensamble', which means 'together'. It initially referred to a group of musicians playing together. Over time, the term expanded to include actors, dancers, and even coordinated outfits in fashion. 'Ensemble' emphasizes the idea of unity and cohesion within a group or set of items.
