Etymology of SUBTITLE

The word "subtitle" originated from the combination of two parts: "sub-" and "-title".

The prefix "sub-" comes from the Latin word "sub", meaning "under" or "below". It is commonly used to indicate something that is subordinate or secondary to another element.

The second part, "-title", is derived from the Latin word "titulus", which means "inscription" or "heading". It refers to a written or printed heading or title used to indicate the subject or contents of a book, film, or other artistic work.

Putting these two parts together, "subtitle" refers to a secondary title that appears below or under the main title or heading.
