Etymology
'corporate' originates from Latin, specifically the word 'corporatus,' where 'corporare' meant 'to form into a body.' 'Controlled' comes from the Old French 'contreroller,' meaning 'to check or verify.'
'corporate' changed from the Latin word 'corporatus' and eventually became the modern English word 'corporate.' 'Controlled' evolved from the Old French 'contreroller' to the modern English 'controlled.'
Initially, 'corporate' meant 'formed into a body,' but over time it evolved to mean 'related to a corporation.' 'Controlled' has largely retained its original meaning of 'to check or verify.'
