Origin:
The term "hurdle" originates from the Late Latin word "hurdiculus," which referred to stakes or wattle used in fencing or enclosures. Over time, the word "hurdle" came to be used more broadly to describe any obstacle or barrier that needed to be surmounted.
In the context of sports, hurdles are used as obstacles for athletes to jump over during races. Hurdling as a competitive event originated in the 19th century, with the first recorded hurdle race taking place in England in 1837.
