Etymology

The word 'frown' has its origins in Middle English, derived from the Old French 'froindre', which means 'to wrinkle or furrow'. As we trace it back further, it is likely rooted in the Latin term 'frundere', which also pertained to wrinkling or creasing. The word has evolved over centuries, but the central theme of expressing displeasure or dissatisfaction through facial movement has remained consistent. In literature and everyday speech, 'frown' has been used to convey a wide range of emotions, making it a versatile term in the English language.
