Etymology
The word 'recalling' originates from the Middle English word 'recallen', which means 'to summon back'. The prefix 're-' suggests repetition, while 'call' comes from the Old Norse 'kalla', meaning 'to call, shout'. The sense of remembering or bringing something back to mind developed in the late 16th century. In the context of product recalls, the term gained popularity in the mid-20th century with the rise of consumer protection laws.
