Etymology

The French noun **vers** comes directly from Latin *versus*, “a line of poetry or verse,” which in turn is derived from *vertere* “to turn, bend.” The Latin root traces back to the Proto‑Indo‑European *wert‑ “to turn,” a sense that survived in the Old French *vers*, preserving the poetic connotation through the Middle Ages to modern French.
