Etymology
'accomplished' originates from the Latin word 'accomplere,' where 'ad-' meant 'to' and 'complere' meant 'fill up or complete.'
'accomplere' transformed into the Old French word 'acomplir,' and eventually became the modern English word 'accomplish' through Middle English.
Initially, it meant 'to complete or fulfill,' and over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'highly skilled or proficient.'
