Etymology of EMPLOYED

The word "employed" originated from the Latin word "implicare", which means "to involve" or "to enfold". In medieval Latin, the word evolved to "implicatus", which means "engaged in something". Later, in Old French, it became "employer", carrying the meaning "to use" or "to apply".
