Word origin

The word 'parliamentary' originated in the early 19th century from the word 'parliament,' which itself comes from the Old French word 'parlement.' The concept of a parliament as a legislative body dates back to medieval England, where representatives gathered to discuss and make decisions on important matters. Over time, the term 'parliamentary' has come to encompass not only the workings of a legislative assembly but also formal meetings and conferences where decisions are made collectively.
