Etymology:
Meaning:
"Intervention" refers to the act of coming between two parties or situations, often with the intention of resolving a conflict or improving a situation. It involves taking an active role in influencing the course of events.
Origin:
The word "intervention" first appeared in English in the early 1600s, borrowed from the Latin verb intervenire. In Latin, intervenire had a legal meaning, referring to the act of coming between parties in a lawsuit or negotiation.
Over time, the meaning of "intervention" broadened to include any situation where one party or a third party steps in to influence the course of events. It can refer to both positive (e.g., medical intervention) and negative (e.g., military intervention) actions.
