Origin:
The word "commendation" originated in ancient Rome, where it was used to describe the formal act of entrusting something to someone's care. This sense of "entrusting" gradually evolved into the meaning of "praising" or "approving" in the 14th century.
In the 15th century, "commendation" began to be used specifically for official statements of praise or approval, such as those issued by superiors or organizations. This usage became standard in the 16th century and has continued to the present day.
