'camouflager' originates from French, specifically the word 'camoufler,' where 'camoufler' meant 'to disguise or hide.'

'camoufler' transformed into the English word 'camouflage,' and eventually became the modern English word 'camouflager' through adaptation.

Initially, it meant 'to disguise or hide,' and this meaning has largely remained the same in modern usage.
