Etymology
The word 'evade' originated from the Latin word 'evadere', which means 'to escape'. The Latin roots break down into 'e-' (a variant of 'ex-', meaning 'out') and 'vadere' (meaning 'to go'). This etymology emphasizes the idea of moving away from something or avoiding it. The term entered English usage in the late 15th century. It initially held the connotation of escaping from danger or difficult situations. Over time, its usage broadened to include avoidance of responsibilities and obligations, such as in politics, law, and social situations. 'Evaded' is the past tense form of the verb and carries the same meanings, indicating that an action of avoidance has already taken place.
