The term 'resource-abundant' combines 'resource,' from Old French 'resourse,' meaning 'a source or supply,' and 'abundant,' from Latin 'abundare,' meaning 'to overflow.'

'Resource' evolved from the Old French 'resourse' and 'abundant' from Latin 'abundare,' eventually forming the modern English term 'resource-abundant.'

Initially, 'resource' referred to a source of aid or support, while 'abundant' meant overflowing. Together, they now describe a plentiful supply of resources.
