Etymology

The word inject originates from Latin inicere (to throw in), combining in- (into) and jacere (to throw). Over time, it evolved into injectus in Late Latin, retaining the core idea of "forcing something in." The medical sense emerged in the 17th century, reflecting the action of "throwing" liquid into the body via a syringe.
