The word consummated originated from the Latin verb consummare, which is a combination of the prefix con- meaning completely or thoroughly, and the verb summare meaning to complete or to perfect. It is derived from the Latin noun summa, which means total or sum. Over time, this Latin verb evolved into the Old French word consemer and then into the Middle English term consummaten. Eventually, it transformed into the modern English word consummated.
