Etymology of ENGLOBE

The word "englobe" appears to have originated from the combination of the prefix "en-" (meaning "to make or put into") and the noun "globe" (meaning "a sphere or a ball").

The term "englobe" first appeared in English in the mid-16th century, derived from the Middle French word "englober", which in turn came from the Old French word "englobe", meaning "to roll into a ball". The Old French term can be further traced back to the Latin word "globus", meaning "a round object" or "a sphere".

Over time, "englobe" in English evolved to mean "to enclose or encompass something within a spherical or rounded shape". It can also be used metaphorically to refer to the act of including or enveloping something within a larger context or framework.
