/əˈdɔː(r)//əˈdɔːr/

The word "adore" has a rich history that dates back to the 14th century. It comes from the Latin word "adorea," which is derived from "ad" meaning "to" and "deorare" meaning "to worship" or "to revere." In Middle English, the word "adore" emerged as a verb, initially meaning "to worship" or "to reverence" something or someone with great devotion. Over time, the connotation of the word expanded to also include feelings of love, admiration, and affection. In modern English, "adore" is often used to express deep love and admiration for someone or something, as in "I adore my children" or "I adore the beauty of the natural world." Despite its evolution, the core meaning of the word remains the same: to hold something or someone in high esteem and awe.
