Word origin
The word 'rally' comes from the Old French 'ralier', which means 'to bring together again'. It was derived from the prefix 're-', meaning 'again', and 'alier', which means 'to join or unite'. This concept evolved in English during the late 14th century, originally used in the context of bringing armies together. Over time, the term expanded to include a variety of contexts, such as social movements or sports, where a group gathers for support or motivation. The notion of rallying implies a collective effort, emphasizing unity and determination, which has remained central to its meaning throughout history.
