Word origin
The word 'venue' originated from Latin 'venire' meaning 'come'. In the 14th century, it was used in English to refer to a coming for some purpose. Over time, it evolved to represent a place where events occur. The modern usage of 'venue' in both event and legal contexts has solidified its place in the English language.
