"Masterful" traces its roots back to the Old French word "maistrie," which meant "mastery," "skill," or "craft." The word "master" itself comes from the Latin "magister," which referred to a teacher or leader. By the 14th century, "masterful" began to be used in English to describe someone possessing great skill or expertise.
