Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology

Derived from the Latin 'damnatio', meaning 'condemnation' or 'infliction of a penalty', stemming from 'damnare' (to adjudge guilty, condemn). It entered Middle English via Old French in the 14th century, initially carrying legal connotations before shifting predominantly into a theological sense concerning eternal punishment in hell.
