Etymology of SEMAPHORED
The word "semaphored" is derived from the noun "semaphore" and the suffix "-ed".
The noun "semaphore" comes from the French word "sémaphore", which was coined in the early 19th century. It is a combination of the Greek words "sêma" meaning "sign" and "pherein" meaning "to bear". The term was originally used to describe a system of visual signaling using flags or mechanical devices to transmit messages over long distances. Semaphore systems were developed for communication between ships and coastal signal stations, and later used on land for railway signaling.
The suffix "-ed" is a common suffix in English language that is used to form the past tense or past participle of regular verbs. In the case of "semaphored", it indicates that something has been communicated or signaled using a semaphore.
