Etymology

The word 'phantasied' derives from the Middle English word 'fantasien', which in turn comes from the Old French 'fantasier' and the Latin 'phantasia'. The roots of the word relate to the concept of imagination and visualizing things that do not exist in the tangible world. Over the centuries, while the notion of phantasy remained, it has evolved in English to take on a more nuanced meaning that includes both the act of imagining and the broader implications of one's mental creations. As psychology developed, the term has also been associated with psychoanalytic theories regarding the inner workings of the mind and how individuals cope with their desires and needs.
