Thesaurus & Semantic Spectrum
Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
The term combines the preposition 'for' and the noun 'profit' (derived from the Latin 'profectus', meaning progress or gain) with 'corporation' (from the Latin 'corporare', meaning to form into a body). It emerged in modern legal and economic terminology to distinguish commercial business entities legally organized to generate financial gain for their owners or shareholders from non-profit organizations.
