Word origin

The word 'marvel' comes from the Middle English 'marvellen', which is derived from the Old French 'marveiller', meaning to wonder or to be astonished. Its roots can be traced back to the Latin word 'mirabilus', which means 'wonderful' or 'extraordinary'. The transition from the Latin to the French and then to English occurred around the 14th century. Initially, it was used to describe something that causes wonder or astonishment. Over centuries, the term has evolved but retained its essence of admiration and awe. Today, 'marveling' denotes an active engagement with the extraordinary, be it in nature, art, or human achievement, embodying the human capacity to appreciate beauty and wonder in various forms.
