Story behind the word: The word 'eviscerate' originated from the Latin word 'evisceratus', which is derived from the prefix 'ex-' meaning 'out' and 'viscera' meaning 'internal organs'.
Evolution of the word: Originally used in a literal sense to refer to the act of disemboweling or removing the internal organs of a living creature, 'eviscerate' has evolved to also mean metaphorically to remove or destroy the essential parts or vital content of something.
