The word "outreached" is derived from two separate words: "out" and "reach".
- "Out" comes from the Old English word "ūt" which means "outside" or "away from".
- "Reach" comes from the Old English word "rǣcan" which means "to stretch out" or "to extend".
When combined, "outreach" is formed, which originally meant "to extend or stretch out beyond something". Over time, the term evolved to encompass the idea of extending help or support to others, especially those in need or less fortunate. The past tense form of "outreach" is "outreached", which refers to an action that has already been extended or stretched out beyond its normal limit.
