Word origin

The word 'reserved' comes from the Latin word 'reservare', which means 'to keep back'. It has been used in English since the late 14th century. Originally, it was primarily used in legal contexts to denote setting something aside or withholding. Over time, the meaning expanded to include the idea of booking or setting aside something for a specific purpose or person.
