'navigator' originates from Latin, specifically the word 'navigator,' where 'navi-' meant 'ship' and 'gator' meant 'one who steers.'

'navigator' changed from the Latin word 'navigator' and eventually became the modern English word 'navigator.'

Initially, it meant 'one who steers a ship,' but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'one who plans and directs the course of any form of transportation.'
