'resound' originates from Latin, specifically the word 'resonare,' where 're-' meant 'again' and 'sonare' meant 'to sound.'

'resonare' transformed into the Old French word 'resoner,' and eventually became the modern English word 'resound' through Middle English.

Initially, it meant 'to sound again or echo,' but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'to fill a place with sound or to echo loudly.'
