Etymology of INVALIDED

The word "invalided" comes from the Latin word "invalidus", meaning "weak" or "lacking strength". This Latin term was derived from the combination of the prefix "in-" (meaning "not") and "validus" (meaning "strong" or "powerful"). Over time, "invalidus" evolved into the Old French word "invalidus", which eventually entered the English language as "invalid", referring to a person made weak or disabled by illness or injury. The verb form "invalided" emerged from this noun, referring to the act of declaring someone as an invalid or invalidating their status due to health issues.
