The word "task" comes from the Middle English "taske," which was borrowed from the Old French "tasque," and originally from the Latin "taxare," meaning "to impose a charge." The term "method" comes from the Greek "methodos," meaning "pursuit of knowledge," composed of "meta-" (meaning "after" or "beyond") and "hodos" (meaning "way" or "path").
