Origin:
The verb "stalk" originated in Old Norse as "stalka," meaning "to pursue, follow secretly." It is likely related to the Indo-European root "steigh," which means "to ascend, climb, or spring."
Over time, "stalk" came to mean "to go after someone quietly and persistently." This meaning was first recorded in Middle English in the 14th century. By the 16th century, "stalk" had taken on its modern sense of "to pursue or follow someone without their knowledge or consent."
"Stalking" is considered a form of harassment and can be a serious crime in many jurisdictions. It can have severe psychological and physical consequences for victims.
