Origin:
The word "boon" originated from the Proto-Indo-European root *bʰeh₂-nós, which means "to speak" or "to ask." This root is also the ancestor of the Latin word "bonus" ("good").
In Old English, the word "bēn" meant "a prayer" or "a request." It was often used in religious contexts to refer to a favor or blessing granted by God.
Over time, the meaning of "boon" has expanded to include any kind of favor or benefit, not just those granted by divine powers. It can also refer to a good or valuable object, such as a gift or a treasure.
