Etymology

The term 'proffered' originates from the verb 'proffer', which developed in the late Middle English period, around the 14th century. It is derived from the Anglo-French word 'profrer', meaning 'to put forward', which in turn comes from Latin 'proferre'. The Latin 'proferre' is a combination of 'pro-', meaning 'forward', and 'ferre', meaning 'to carry' or 'to bring'. This etymological lineage emphasizes the act of carrying something forward to present it to someone else's consideration. Over time, the usage of 'proffer' has been commonly found in both legal and formal discussions, reflecting its roots in offering or presenting ideas or items in a considerate manner.
