Etymology
The word 'mopping' originates from the Old English word 'moppian', which means 'to clean with a mop'. Mops have been used for cleaning purposes for centuries, with various materials such as cloth, sponge, or string being attached to a handle for efficient cleaning. The practice of mopping floors dates back to ancient times when water and a cleaning agent would be used to clean surfaces. Over time, mopping techniques and tools have evolved to make cleaning more effective and convenient.
