Etymology
The term 'fagged' originates from the verb 'fag', which has roots in the late 15th century. It is believed to have come from the noun 'fag', which initially meant 'a tool for working or a bundle of sticks'. Over time, the meaning evolved to imply hard work or effort, and by the 19th century, it referred specifically to being worn out from exertion. The usage of 'fag' in British slang also connotes being tired out, particularly after labor-intensive work or activities. This evolution reflects the language's adaptation to convey feelings of fatigue and exhaustion in more casual conversations.
