From an etymological, morphological, and historical perspective, the word bakery involves a linguistic evolution tracing back to the Latin term ''baxarium’'. This can be broken down into two parts, ''baxa'' meaning ''chest'' and ''arium'' meaning ''a place'' or ''a shop''. The ''baxarium'' was a place which sold chests and other items. The word was then adapted by the Old French language, to become ''bacarie'', the French word for ''bakery''. In the Middle English language, the term evolved to become ''bakerere'' and eventually it settled into its current form in Modern English. Morphologically, bakery is a noun and a common collocation would be with the verb buy. Pragmatically, the word conveys its connotations of a place where food is baked and sold.
