Etymology of DISCARDED

The word discarded originated from the Latin word discardare, which means to cast off. It is derived from the combination of the prefix dis- (meaning apart or away) and the verb cardare (meaning to throw or throw away). Over time, the word evolved and was adopted into Middle English as discarden, which eventually became the modern spelling discard along with its past tense form discarded.
