Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

Derived from the Latin 'familiaritas', stemming from 'familiaris' (private, domestic, intimate), built upon 'familia' (household, family). Entering Middle English in the 15th century, the term shifted from denoting close intimate association to encompass the cognitive state of knowing something or someone well through previous experience.
