giảm tốc
/ˌdiːˈseləreɪt//ˌdiːˈseləreɪt/The word "decelerate" has its roots in Latin. In the 15th century, it was borrowed from the Latin phrase "decelerare," which means "to take away speed" or "to slow down." This Latin phrase is a combination of "de," meaning "away" or "from," and "celare," meaning "to conceal" or "to hide." In the original sense, "decelerate" meant to reduce or hide speed, often in a deliberate or intentional manner. Over time, the meaning of the word expanded to include a broader sense of slowing down or reducing momentum, whether physical, emotional, or metaphorical. Today, the word is commonly used in various contexts, including physics, transportation, and even psychological and emotional states. Despite its complex etymology, "decelerate" has retained its simplicity and clarity in conveying the idea of slowing down or reducing pace.
