Origin:
The word "reckoning" ultimately derives from the Proto-Indo-European root *rek-, which means "to count." It is related to other words in English such as "reckon" and "recognize."
In Old English, the word "recnung" was used to refer to the act of counting or calculating. It could also be used to refer to a written account of an expenditure or debt. In Middle English, the word "reknyng" began to be used in a more general sense, to refer to any statement or opinion.
The word "reckoning" is often used in the context of judgment or punishment. For example, the phrase "the day of reckoning" refers to a time when someone will be held accountable for their actions.
