Answer: The word "appendix" traces its earliest origin to Latin.

Explanation: The word "appendix" is a noun that is used either to make reference to a part of the body that is joined to the intestines or to the part at the end of a book. This word has been borrowed from Latin. At the same time, the Latin word "appendix" comes from the Latin word "appendere", a verb which means to hang from something or to pin up.
