Word origin
The word 'pregnant' has been in use in English since the early 15th century. It comes from the Latin word 'praegnantem' which means 'with child'. Over the centuries, the term has evolved to encompass not just the physical state of carrying a baby but also the idea of being full of meaning or significance.
