Word origin
The word 'mastered' is derived from the Old English 'mægester', which means 'chief, head, or ruler.' It has roots in the Latin 'magister', which also means 'teacher' or 'chief.' The term evolved over time to denote someone who has authority or skill in a particular area. By the late Middle Ages, 'master' began to take on its modern meaning as someone who has gained expertise or command over a subject or skill through dedicated practice and learning. The transition from its original meanings to its current usage highlights the importance of mastery not just in a hierarchical sense, but also in relation to skills and knowledge acquisition.
