Origin:
The word "franc" originated in the 7th century from the Proto-Germanic word frankōn, which meant "free." This term was used to refer to the Frankish people, a Germanic tribe that conquered Gaul (present-day France) in the 5th century.
Over time, the meaning of "franc" evolved to refer to the currency issued by the Frankish kings. In the 11th century, the French franc became the official currency of the French kingdom.
The word "franc" was also used to describe people who were not bound by feudal obligations or who had gained their freedom. This usage led to the modern meaning of "franc" as an adjective meaning "free" or "open."
