Word origin

The word 'extended' originates from the Latin word 'extendere', which means 'to stretch out'. The term has been used in English language since the 15th century, originally referring to something that has been made larger or stretched out. Over time, 'extended' has evolved to encompass the idea of prolonging or stretching the duration of something.
