Etymology Information

Historical Evolution

'consistere' transformed into the French word 'consister,' and eventually became the modern English word 'consist.' 'Macian' evolved into the Middle English word 'maken,' which became 'make.'

Meaning Changes

Initially, 'consistently' meant 'standing together,' but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'in a consistent manner.' 'Made' has largely retained its original meaning of 'created or built.'
