Etymology of PARENTHOODS

The word "parenthoods" is derived from the combination of two separate words: "parenthood" and the plural suffix "-s".

The term "parenthood" dates back to the mid-19th century and is formed by combining the word "parent" with the suffix "-hood". "Parent" comes from the Old French word "parent" and the Latin word "parēns", which means "a father or mother". The suffix "-hood" is derived from Old English and is used to indicate a state or condition.

The addition of the plural suffix "-s" to "parenthood" creates the word "parenthoods", indicating multiple instances or examples of the state of being a parent.
