Etymology
The word 'sewer' has origins dating back to the late Middle Ages. It comes from the Old French 'sewer', meaning 'to drain'. This term was derived from the Latin verb 'exutor', which means 'to empty'. The concept of a sewer, primarily for the removal of wastewater, became more prominent with the increase in urbanization, particularly during the Industrial Revolution, when large populations required efficient waste management systems. The transition from the noun form 'sewer' to the verb 'to sewer' indicates the action of creating connections to this waste system, emphasizing the development of public health infrastructure and hygiene practices.
