Etymology


The phrase "to keep momentum" combines the verb "keep," meaning to retain or hold, with "momentum," a term borrowed from Latin 'momentum,' originally meaning 'movement' or 'motion.' In physics, momentum refers to the quantity of motion an object has, and metaphorically, it has come to signify sustaining progress or energy in various contexts.
