Etymology of EXERTED

The word "exerted" is derived from the Latin verb "exserere", which means "to thrust out". It is a combination of the prefix "ex-" (meaning "out") and the verb "serere" (meaning "to join" or "to connect"). Over time, the Latin verb evolved into the Middle French word "essertir", which means "to tighten" or "to set a jewel into a setting". From Middle French, it entered the English language as "exert" in the 17th century, which means to apply physical or mental effort or force. From "exert", the past participle form "exerted" is created, indicating an action that has been completed in the past.
