Definition

Usage Examples

Etymology

The French noun **expo** is a shortened form of *exposition*, itself borrowed from the Late Latin *expositio* “display, exhibition”, derived from the verb *exponere* “to lay out, put forth” (from *ex-* “out” + *ponere* “to place”). The truncation to **expo** emerged in the early 20th century, following the popular use of the same shortened form in English and reflecting the modern tendency toward lexical condensation.
