Usage Examples

Etymology

The French noun *gym* is a modern, informal abbreviation of *gymnase*. *Gymnase* entered French from the Latin *gymnasium*, which in turn came from the Greek *gymnasion* (“place of gymnastics”), itself derived from *gymnos* (“naked”) because early gymnastic training was performed without clothing. The truncated form *gym* emerged in the 20th century, largely influenced by the English usage of the same shortening.
