Etymology
The word 'placard' originated in the late 15th century, derived from the Middle French term 'placarde,' which means a placard or notice. This in turn comes from the verb 'placarder,' meaning to placard or post. The Latin root can be traced back to 'placardus,' which is related to 'placare,' meaning to please or quiet. Over time, the term evolved to specifically denote a notice or announcement displayed in a public space. By the 18th century, the usage of 'placard' expanded to not only refer to physical notices but also the act of posting them, leading to the verb 'placarded' being commonly used in English.
