The word "to confront" comes from the Latin prefix 'con-' meaning 'with' and 'frons' meaning 'forehead' or 'face.' Originally, it implied facing someone or something head-on, much like two people standing face to face. Did you know? This vivid image of facing something frontally has carried through to modern usage.
