Usage Examples

Etymology

Embarquement comes from the French verb *embarquer*, itself derived from the Latin *imbarcāre* (“to board”), a combination of *im-* (in, on) and *barca* (boat). Adopted into Middle French in the 14th century, the noun *embarquement* originally denoted the act of boarding a vessel and later broadened to any boarding activity, formed by nominalizing the verbal stem with the suffix *‑ment*.
