Word origin

The word 'imprints' originated from the Latin word 'imprimere', which means 'to press into'. The concept of leaving marks or impressions dates back to ancient times when people used seals and stamps to create imprints on documents and clay tablets. Over time, the term has evolved to encompass not just physical marks but also psychological imprints on the mind.
