 Etiquette, a French word that originally meant ‘ticket’, came to mean
rules for behavior in the year 1600, during the days of the French
Court and rule of Louis XIV. From that day on, the word etiquette has
been used to designate the conventional use of behavior or correct
behavior that should constitute good conduct.
