Origin:
The word "accustom" comes from the Latin word "ad-consuetudo," which means "to habitualize." This Latin word is derived from the Proto-Indo-European root *kʷes-, which means "to inhabit, be accustomed." The same root has given rise to other words related to habit and custom, such as "custom" and "consuetude."
The word "accustom" has been used in English since the 13th century. It originally meant "to make someone or something familiar with something," but over time it came to mean "to get used to something" or "to train or habituate."
