Etymology

The term 'roulette' originates from the French word for 'little wheel'. It is derived from 'Roulette', a diminutive form of 'Roue', which means 'wheel' in French. The game itself has roots tracing back to the 17th century in France and combines elements of an ancient Italian game called 'Hoca' and a similar game called 'Biribi'. The term 'rouletted', then, captures the essence of engaging with this game of chance. As roulette spread to various parts of Europe and eventually to America, it evolved and adapted various rules, but the fundamental concept remained the same: a wheel with numbered slots into which a small ball is dropped to determine the winning number. This background adds a layer of history and cultural significance to the act of 'rouletted', representing a fusion of luck, strategy, and social interaction.
