Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

Derived from the Middle English verb 'couvrin' (via Old French 'covrir', from Latin 'cooperire', meaning 'to cover completely'). By the late 19th century, the suffix '-age' was added to denote the extent to which something is covered, originally applied to insurance protection and later expanded to journalism and broadcasting.
