Origin:
The term "regress" originated in the 14th century, derived from the Latin word regressus, which is the past participle of the verb regredi, meaning "to step backward." The Latin suffix -ssus denotes the result of an action, thus regressus means "the act of stepping backward."
Over time, the meaning of "regress" has expanded to encompass not only physical movement backward but also figurative concepts such as going back in time, returning to a previous state, declining, or worsening.
