/ɪˈmɪʃn//ɪˈmɪʃn/

The word "emission" has its roots in the Latin language. The Latin word "emissio" means "a sending forth" or "a dispatching". This Latin term was derived from the verb "emittere", which means "to send out" or "to dispatch". In the 14th century, the English language adopted the term "emission" from Old French, where it was spelled "emission". Initially, the word referred to the act of sending out or dispatching something, such as troops, dispatches, or messengers. Over time, the meaning of the word expanded to include the release or discharge of physical entities, such as light, sound, or particles. Today, the term "emission" has numerous applications in various fields, including science, technology, and the environment, where it refers to the release of pollutants, greenhouse gases, or radiation into the air or atmosphere.
