Etymology
Exposure comes from the Latin parts ex- 'out' and ponere 'to put' and shares its root with position, so it once meant 'putting out'. A helpful image is a person 'put out' into a situation, which is why exposure now means the experience of being subjected to something like stress or bad influence.
