Etymology
The verb "sviluppare" comes from the Italian prefix 's-' meaning 'from' or 'off' and 'viluppare' meaning 'to wrap or envelop.' Originally, it referred to unwrapping or unfolding something. Over time, it evolved metaphorically to mean 'to develop' or 'expand' an idea or project, much like unwrapping something to reveal its contents.
