The etymology of "bon mot" is traced back to the French language. “Bon mot" literally means "good word" in French. The word "bon" means "good" and "mot" means "remark, short speech". "Mot" is derived from the Latin word "muttum," which means "to mutter, mumble, murmur". The term "bon mot" has been used in English since 1735 to refer to a clever or witty saying. |
