Word origin

The word 'personal' originated in the mid 14th century from the Old French word 'personel' which means 'of or related to a person'. It has been used to describe something specific or unique to an individual rather than a generalization. Over time, the term has evolved to encompass a wide range of meanings, from individualized to private or confidential.
