Etymology
The word 'peregrinate' comes from the Latin 'peregrinari', which means 'to travel abroad', itself derived from 'peregrinus', meaning 'foreigner'. The prefix 'pere-' suggests movement away from one's own country, while 'grinus' relates to being a citizen of a specific place. The term entered the English language in the early 17th century and has been used to describe not just broad physical movements but also explorations of thought and culture. Historically, peregrination implies a journey that is not solely for practical reasons but often involves a search for knowledge or personal discovery.
