The verb "action" originates from the Old French word "accion" or "action", which in turn evolved from the Latin word "actio". The Latin term "actio" primarily meant "a doing" or "an action", and it is derived from the verb "agere", meaning "to do" or "to act".
Over time, the word "action" has come to encompass meanings like "activity", "movement", "process", or "effort" in English. When the suffix "-ed" is added to form "actioned", it indicates that the action or process described has taken place or has been completed in the past.
