Origin:
The term "runaway" emerged in the late Middle English period. Its origins lie in the combination of two words: "run," which denotes swift movement, and "away," which implies a direction away from a specific location or authority.
Initially, "runaway" primarily referred to individuals, particularly young people, who had left their homes or caregivers without authorization. Over time, the term expanded to encompass a broader range of entities, including animals and inanimate objects, that escaped from control and exhibited uncontrolled movement.
