Origin
The word "fill" has its roots in the Proto-Indo-European word "pleh₂-", which means "to fill" or "to make full". This root is also found in other Indo-European languages, such as Latin "impleo" and Greek "πλήρης" (plērēs).
The Old English word "fyllan" is directly derived from the Proto-Germanic word "fulljan". This word underwent a sound change in Old English, where the initial consonant "f" changed to "v" in certain contexts.
Over time, the word "fill" has taken on a wide range of meanings, from its original sense of "to make full" to its more figurative sense of "to satisfy" or "to complete".
