Thesaurus & Semantic Spectrum
Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
The term combines 'logistical', derived from the French 'logistique' (referring to the military science of quartermastering and supply, ultimately from Greek 'logistikos' meaning calculating) and 'hitch', an Old English word of uncertain origin meaning a sudden halt or catch. Together, the compound phrase emerged in the mid-20th century to describe minor operational delays in planning and execution.
