BACKPACK Meaning and
Definition
-
A backpack is a type of bag that is designed to be carried on a person's back, typically using two straps that go over the shoulders. It is commonly used for carrying belongings, especially when traveling, hiking, or going to school.
Constructed from various materials such as fabric, nylon, or leather, a backpack typically features a large main compartment that can accommodate different items and is closed with a zipper or drawstring. It may also have additional compartments, side pockets, or straps to hold smaller objects or accessories. The straps are adjustable to suit the wearer's comfort and can be made of the same material as the bag or padded for extra support.
The practical design of a backpack allows for an even distribution of weight across the shoulders and back, decreasing strain and enabling easier mobility. As it is carried on the back, it leaves both hands free for other activities or tasks, making it a convenient choice for people who require mobility while carrying their belongings.
In addition to its functional nature, the backpack has become a popular fashion accessory. With numerous colors, patterns, and styles available, it caters to various personal preferences and can reflect one's individual taste or sense of style. Due to its versatility and usefulness, the backpack has become an essential item for many individuals of different ages and lifestyles.

Etymology of BACKPACK
The word "backpack" originated from the combination of two words: "back" and "pack".
The term "back" comes from the Old English word "bæc", which means the upper part of the body behind the ribs, opposite the front. It has been used to refer to the posterior side of something or someone.
The word "pack" came from the Middle Dutch word "pac" or "pake", which means a bundle or a load carried on the back. This word subsequently made its way into Old French as "pacque". In English, "pack" has been used to describe a number of things bound or tied together into a compact mass.
Combining these two words, "backpack" came into existence as a noun in the mid-20th century to describe a type of bag that is carried on the back.
