Origin:
The word "detour" ultimately derives from the Latin verb "distorquere," which means "to twist away" or "to turn aside." In Old French, the word "destorner" developed from "distornare," and it continued to be used to mean "to turn away" or "to hinder." In the early 16th century, the French word "détour" was borrowed into English.
