The word metal is derived from the Late Latin word metallum, which means ※to make (things) out of metal§. This comes from Proto-Indo-European *metall-, meaning ※to be firm§ or ※to have a fixed form§
Metals have been used for thousands of years as part of our everyday lives. They are very useful and alloys can be used to create new materials that were not previously possible.
