Etymology of MULTIPLIED

The word "multiplied" originates from the Latin word "multiplicare", which is a combination of two Latin words: "multus" meaning "many" and "plicare" meaning "to fold" or "to bend". Hence, "multiplicare" originally referred to the action of folding or bending many times, but it eventually evolved to mean the mathematical operation of multiplying or increasing the quantity of something. This Latin term later passed into Old French as "multiplicier" and ultimately became "multiply" in English.
