Etymology
The word 'recommend' comes from the Latin 'recommendare', which means to commend or to entrust. The term evolved through Old French as 'recommander' before making its way into Middle English as 'recomenden'. The roots emphasize the act of entrusting someone with a recommendation or a piece of advice. Over the centuries, 'recommend' has gained a broader application, extending beyond personal suggestions to include formal endorsements in various fields such as business, education, and the arts. It highlights a relationship of trust between the recommender and the recipient.
