Thesaurus & Semantic Spectrum
Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
Derived from the Latin 'relegatus', past participle of 'relegare', meaning 'to send away, dispatch, or exile', combining 're-' (back, again) and 'legare' (to send with a commission). Entering the English language in the late 16th century, it initially retained the legal sense of banishment or exile before broadening to describe any assignment to a lower, less important position or category.
