'brochure' originates from French, specifically the word 'brocher,' where 'brocher' meant 'to stitch or sew.'

'brocher' transformed into the French word 'brochure,' and eventually became the modern English word 'brochure' through borrowing.

Initially, it meant 'a stitched book or pamphlet,' but over time it evolved into its current meaning of 'a small booklet or pamphlet containing information or promotional material.'
