Word origin

The word 'shower' originated in the late Middle English period from the Old English word 'scลซr', meaning a heavy fall of rain. Over time, the meaning evolved to include a device for washing oneself with water. The use of showers for personal hygiene became more widespread in the 20th century with the development of indoor plumbing and modern bathroom fixtures.
