In the olden times, a cab was commonly referred to as a "hack" or "hackney carriage." These horse-drawn vehicles were used for hire, allowing passengers to travel within cities. The term "hackney" originates from the French word "hacquenée," which means a horse used for riding or driving. Over time, the term evolved, leading to the modern use of "taxi" or "cab."
