Etymology
The word 'stander' is derived from the Middle English 'standen', which comes from the Old English 'standan', meaning 'to stand'. This root can be traced back to the Proto-Germanic '*standanan', which is related to similar words in other Germanic languages, such as Dutch 'staan' and German 'stehen'. Over time, 'stander' evolved to refer specifically to someone or something that maintains an upright position. The use of the term has expanded in various contexts, such as in sports, where it may denote a participant who holds a particular position, or in retail, where it refers to items designed to support displays. The word reflects a clear action of standing and has retained its core meaning through the centuries.
