Etymology
The word 'level' comes from the Old French 'leveler', which means to make level, even, or just. This, in turn, is derived from the Latin 'libella', a diminutive of 'libra', meaning balance or scale. The transformation into 'leveled' signifies the past participle form, used to describe the completion of the action. Over time, 'level' has taken on various meanings across different contexts, such as indicating the flatness of a surface, the equality in degrees or positions, and even in metaphorical uses to describe equal opportunities or fairness. In modern English, it is widely used in a variety of fields including construction, education, and gaming to describe achieving a state of equality or flatness.
