The phrase "apart from" comes from the Old English phrase "on-part" which literally means "on a part." This referred to a separate or distinct part. Over time, the "on" dropped, and the phrase evolved into "apart from," signifying something that is separated or distinct from something else. The phrase has been used for centuries to express exclusion or separation, highlighting a difference between things or people.
