Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

Derived from the Latin 'applicationem' (an attaching, engagement), from 'applicare' (to join to, fasten, lean against), combining 'ad-' (to) and 'plicare' (to fold). Entering Middle English via Old French in the 14th century, the term originally referred to the act of putting something to another, later expanding to formal requests and computing software programs.
