Origin of the word conveyance

The word "conveyance" has its roots in the Latin word "conveyare," meaning "to carry together." This is a combination of "con-" (together) and "veyare" (to carry). Over time, "conveyance" evolved to signify not just physical transport but also the transfer of ownership or possession. This can be seen in its use for legal documents like deeds, where the transfer of property is formally conveyed. The word's history reflects the development of its meaning, from simple transport to broader concepts of transferring ownership and ideas.
