Etymology
The word 'pour' comes from the Old French verb 'pour', which means 'to hold or carry'. Its roots can be traced back to the Latin word 'pลrta', meaning 'to carry'. As the English language evolved, 'pour' emerged around the 14th century as a term specifically used for the act of transferring liquid. Over centuries, the usage of 'poured' has been widely adopted in both formal and colloquial contexts, illustrating its versatility in various settings, particularly in kitchens and dining environments. The transition from the Old French to modern English has retained much of the original meaning while evolving in form.
