Origin:
The word "acquaintance" originated from the Latin phrase "ac-quietus," which means "towards rest" or "towards peace." In the Middle Ages, "ac-quietus" was used to refer to a legal agreement that brought an end to a dispute. Over time, the word evolved to mean "familiarity" or "knowledge," and eventually came to refer to a person with whom one has some connection but not a close relationship.
