Etymology
The word 'lining' has its origins in Middle English, derived from the Old English word 'linung', which meant 'a covering or a lining'. The concept of lining garments dates back to ancient times when people used fur or other materials to line their clothing for warmth. Over the centuries, the use of linings in clothing and construction has evolved, with modern materials offering a variety of functions beyond just insulation.
