Word origin
The word 'sans' is derived from the French word meaning 'without'. It has been used in the English language to indicate absence or lack of something. The term 'sans-serif' in typography refers to typefaces that do not have the small projecting features called serifs at the end of strokes. The use of 'sans' in English dates back to the 19th century and has since become widely accepted in various contexts.
