WHAT DOES EDIT MEAN?


The word edit

Where did it come from, how has it changed?

·         According to the online etymology dictionary the word came around in 1791. Perhaps a back-formation from editor, or from French éditer, or from Latin editus, past participle of edere (see edition). Related: Edited; editing. As a noun, by 1960.

·         The word has gone from back formatting and has changed over the course of time from being verb to a Norn.

·         Technology has transformed the word and has created new means for the word itself.  Such as photos, newspaper, social media and so on.
