The term "success" originated from the Latin word "successus", which means "an advancement, a coming up, or a result". It is formed from the verb "succedere", meaning "to come up, go up, or follow after". Latin "succedere" is further derived from "sub", meaning "under, below", and "cedere", meaning "to go, move, or yield".
Over time, "success" developed in English to refer to the achievement or accomplishment of desired objectives or goals. The addition of the "-ful" suffix to the adjective "successful" creates a noun form that emphasizes the state or quality of being prosperous or achieving positive outcomes.
