The word "polluted" has been in use since at least the 14th century, derived from the Latin word "pollutus," which means "to make dirty or unclean." It originally referred to the act of making something impure or contaminated. Over time, its usage expanded, particularly in the context of environmental issues, to describe contaminated air, water, and land. Today, it is commonly used in discussions about environmental degradation and public health.
