Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

Derived from the Latin expertus, meaning 'tried, proven, or experienced,' which is the past participle of experiri meaning 'to try or test.' Entering Middle English via Old French in the 15th century, the term originally functioned primarily as an adjective denoting a person who had gained skill through extensive practice or experience before expanding into a noun.
