The Word "Cater" and it's Origin



The word "cater" has an interesting origin that dates back to the 16th century. It comes from the Old French word "acater," which means "to buy provisions" or "to provide food." The word then evolved into "cateren" in Middle English, which meant "to provide food and drink."


The word "cater" was originally used to describe the work of a caterer, who was a person who provided food and drink for special events or occasions. In the early days, a caterer would typically prepare and deliver food to a client's home or venue, but as the business grew, caterers began to specialize in specific types of events, such as weddings, corporate events, or banquets.


Over time, the word "cater" has taken on a broader meaning beyond just providing food and drink. Today, the word can be used to describe any type of service or product that is tailored to a specific group or individual.
