Etymology
The word captioning comes from caption, which goes back to the Latin caput meaning 'head' and is the same root in words like cap and capital. A caption was at first a small 'head' or title next to a picture or text, so captioning is the act of putting short written 'heads' on a screen to explain or show spoken words.
