Word origin

The word 'pattern' originated from the Middle English word 'patron', which came from the Old French word 'patron' meaning 'a model or guide for making something'. The sense of 'a repeated decorative design' dates back to the late 14th century. Over time, 'pattern' evolved to also refer to the regular form or sequence discernible in certain actions or situations.
