Etymology
**Carnet** (noun)
Originating in the 12th‑century Old French *carn*, the word meant “book, account” and comes from Latin *carnus* “fleshy, thick” – a figurative reference to a thick sheet of paper. The French diminutive suffix *‑et* produced *carnet*, literally “little book,” which over time broadened to refer to any small notebook or ledger.
