Origin:
The word "verboten" originated in the Germanic languages as a term used to describe actions that were not permitted or allowed. It was typically used in legal and religious contexts to prohibit certain behaviors or practices. Over time, the term became associated with actions that were considered dangerous, immoral, or otherwise taboo.
In the English language, "verboten" is often used to convey a sense of mystery, danger, or excitement surrounding something that is prohibited. It can also be used humorously to emphasize the absurdity or inappropriateness of a particular situation.
