ORIGIN
Middle English
: from
Old French
diapre
, from medieval
Latin
diasprum
, from medieval
Greek
diaspros
(adjective), from
dia
‘
across
’ +
aspros
‘
white
’. The term seems originally to have denoted a
costly
fabric
, but after the
15th century
it was used as in diaper (sense 2 of the noun) ;
babies
'
nappies
were originally made from pieces of this fabric, hence diaper (sense 1 of the noun) (late
16th century
).
