Word origin

The word 'fusion' originated from the Latin word 'fusio', which means 'a pouring out' or 'a melting'. In the context of nuclear fusion, the term was first used in the 1940s to describe the process of combining atomic nuclei. Over time, 'fusion' has come to represent the merging or blending of various elements in different fields, such as music, cuisine, and design.
