Etymology
The word 'romance' originates from the Latin 'romanice', which means 'in the Roman style'. Initially, this term referred to the vernacular languages that developed after the fall of the Roman Empire and started to describe tales of chivalry and love. By the 14th century, 'romance' began to acquire its modern connotation related to love and passion, extensively influenced by medieval literature and troubadour songs. As the concept of romance evolved, so did the verb forms, leading to terms like 'romanced' that indicate a deeper engagement in romantic activities, experiences, or stories. The use of 'romanced' reflects a cultural shift towards valuing emotional connections and storytelling in relationships, particularly prominent since the 18th century.
