'recommender' originates from the Latin word 'recommendare,' where 're-' meant 'again' and 'commendare' meant 'to entrust.'

'recommendare' transformed into the Old French word 'recomander,' and eventually became the modern English word 'recommend' through Middle English.

Initially, it meant 'to entrust again,' but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'to suggest or endorse someone or something.'
