Etimologia


The verb "to carry" comes from the Old French word 'carier,' which means to transport in a vehicle or to load. This in turn derives from the Late Latin 'carriāre,' related to 'carrus,' meaning a wheeled vehicle. Did you know that "carry" originally had stronger associations with transporting goods by cart before it evolved to include manual carrying?
