The word "tote" has a fascinating history! The term "tote" originated in the 17th century from the Latin word "totum," meaning "whole" or "entire." Initially, it referred to carrying or conveying something whole or intact, rather than breaking it down into smaller parts. In the 16th century, the phrase "to tote" emerged in English, literally meaning "to carry" or "to transport." Over time, the phrase was shortened to just "tote." In the 19th century, the term gained popularity, especially in the context of carrying large or bulky items, such as baskets or bags. Today, we commonly use "tote" to refer to a basket, bag, or container used for carrying goods.
