Etymology

The word 'immersed' originates from the Latin word 'immersus', which is the past participle of 'immergere', meaning 'to dip or plunge into'. The term was first used in the early 17th century. Over time, its usage expanded to encompass not only physical submersion in liquids but also figurative immersion in activities or subjects.
