📖 Etymology
Origin: Old French "bordure" — edge, boundary
First known use: 15th century
The term evolved from the Old French 'bordure' which meant boundary or edge. It was later adopted into Middle English, eventually leading to the modern English usage as both a noun and verb referring to lines separating areas.
