Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

The term 'spot check' originated in the mid-20th century, combining 'spot,' meaning a specific place or location, and 'check,' derived from Old French 'eschequier,' meaning to inspect or verify. The phrase evolved to denote a quick, random inspection of a sample rather than a comprehensive review.
