Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

Borrowed directly into English in the mid-18th century from French, where it derives from the verb accoucher (to deliver a woman in childbirth), itself stemming from Old French. The root breaks down into ad- (to, at) and coucher (to lie down), historically referring to the midwife or obstetrician assisting in delivery.
