itinerary = itiner<journey> + ary<noun suffix>
- itiner <journey>: From Latin itineris (genitive of iter), meaning "a journey, road, or way."
- ary <noun suffix>: A suffix forming nouns, often indicating "related to" or "connected with."
Etymology Origin:
The word "itinerary" traces back to Latin itinerarium, meaning "a record of a journey." The root iter (journey) reflects movement or travel, while the suffix -ary transforms it into a noun denoting a plan or record. Over time, it evolved from referring to physical routes (e.g., Roman road logs) to abstract schedules. The logical progression ties the concept of a "path" to structured plans, making it a natural fit for modern travel or event planning.
