Origin:
The word "emaciate" comes from the Latin verb "emaciare," which means "to make thin" or "to waste away." The verb "emaciare" is itself derived from the Latin prefix "e-" (meaning "away, out of") and the root "macio" (meaning "to make thin").
The word "emaciate" was first used in English in the 16th century. It originally meant "to lose weight or flesh," but over time it has come to mean "to become extremely thin or wasted." The word is often used to describe people who are suffering from malnutrition, starvation, or diseases such as cancer or AIDS.
