Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

Derived from Middle French 'ressortir' (to go out again, rebound, or have recourse to), formed from the prefix 're-' plus 'sortir' (to go out, leave), ultimately tracing back to Latin 'sors' (lot, destiny). By the 17th century, the meaning shifted in English to describe a place frequently visited for relaxation or holidays.
