Etymology of UNVEILING

The word "unveiling" has its origins in the Middle English period. It is formed from the verb "unveil", which derives from the combination of the prefix "un" (meaning "not" or "opposite") and the Old French word "veilen" (meaning "to lower" or "to cover"). The Old French term itself has roots in the Latin word "vēlum", which translates to "veil" or "covering". Over time, "unveiling" came to specifically represent the action of revealing or removing a veil or covering, and it continues to be used today in a metaphorical sense as well.
