The word "emerged" comes from the Latin word "emergere" which means "to arise" or "to come forth". It is derived from the combination of the prefix "e-" (meaning "out" or "forth") and the verb "mergere" (meaning "to dip" or "to sink"). The Latin word "emergere" later evolved into the Old French word "emergir" and eventually into the Middle English word "emerge" which has the same meaning as the modern English term.
