Word origin
The word 'outwards' originated from the combination of 'out' and 'wards', both of which have Old English roots. 'Out' means 'away from the inside', while 'wards' is a directional suffix indicating movement in a particular direction. The word has been used in English since the 16th century, evolving to its current form as an adverb indicating direction or behavior.
