Etymology
The word 'tote' originated in the 17th century from the verb 'to tote', which means 'to carry'. It is believed that it derives from the African American Vernacular English (AAVE), specifically from the term used in Gullah, a creole language spoken by the African American community in the coastal regions of the southeastern United States. The popularity of the term grew in the 20th century, especially with the rise of casual and practical language use. In contemporary times, 'tote' has become widely associated with tote bags, which are designed for carrying various items conveniently. The evolution of the word reflects a broader trend in language, where colloquial expressions evolve into more formal or mainstream usage, especially in American English.
