Etymology
The word "de aflevering" comes from Dutch, where "af" means 'off' or 'away' and "levering" means 'delivery' or 'supply.' Originally, it referred to the act of delivering or handing over something. Over time, it evolved to mean an episode or installment in a series, likely because episodes are 'delivered' sequentially.
