Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

Derived from the Latin verb 'exhibere', a compound of 'ex-' (out) and 'habere' (to hold or have), meaning literally 'to hold out or display'. Entering Middle English via Old French in the 15th century, the word initially retained legal and formal senses of producing documents before broadening into the general display of physical objects, qualities, or behaviors.
