Word origin

The word 'rubbish' originated in the late 16th century, derived from the obsolete French word 'roubache', meaning rubble or bits of stone. Over time, its meaning evolved to refer to waste material or nonsense. The term has been commonly used in British English to describe trash or low-quality items.
