Etymology

The word 'total' originates from the Latin 'totalis', which means 'whole' or 'entire'. It entered the English language through Middle French 'total', which carries a similar meaning. The specific verb form 'to total' emerged in the early 20th century as a way to refer to the process of summing figures or amounts. Its usage in the sense of 'to render something completely destroyed' became more prominent with the rise of the automobile and the insurance practices surrounding vehicular accidents. As cars became a common mode of transportation, the evaluation of damage and the determination of whether a vehicle is 'totaled' became an essential part of the insurance process, leading to the popularization of the term in everyday language.
