Etymology

The word 'review' originates from the Old French term 'reveu', which means 'a seeing again' and is derived from the verb 'revoir'. It was introduced into the English language in the late 15th century. The prefix 're-' means 'again' and 'voir' means 'to see', reflecting the idea of re-examining or reassessing something. Over time, the meaning has expanded to encompass a broader range of evaluations and assessments in various contexts such as literature, academia, and performance. The verb 'review' found its footing in English as the practice of checking, critiquing, and discussing work became more commonly formalized, especially in academic and professional settings.
