Etymology

The word "schedule" traces back to Latin "schedula," meaning "a small slip of paper," derived from "scheda" (sheet) + the diminutive suffix "-ula." Over time, it evolved through Old French "cedule" into Middle English, shifting from referring to physical slips (e.g., notes, inventories) to abstract timetables. The modern sense of "planned timing" emerged in the 19th century, reflecting industrialization's need for time management.
