The term "bachelor" historically refers to a young knight or a man of lower rank who was not yet married. Over time, it evolved to specifically denote an unmarried man. The origins of the word can be traced back to the Latin "baccalarius," meaning a young man or apprentice. Today, "bachelor" is commonly used to describe a single man, often in the context of social status or relationship status.
