In that case, we would have to say that it emanates from Latin, specifically from the sum of the prefix \"a-\", and from the verb \"contingere\", which can be translated as \"to happen\".<\/p>\n<p>A <strong>event<\/strong> it's a <strong>event<\/strong> or one <strong>situation<\/strong> that, by having some extraordinary characteristic, acquires relevance and manages to attract attention.  In modern society, events are collected and reported through the <strong>media<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/enorcerna.com\/wiki\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/acontecimiento.jpg\" alt=\"Event\" title=\"Event\" width=\"206\" height=\"160\" class=\"alignright size-full wp-image-14885\"\/>For example: <em>\"The arrival of the singer to the town was quite an event\"<\/em>, <em>\"The Olympic Games will be the most important sporting event of the year\"<\/em>, <em>\"The event was broadcast live on forty-three television channels around the world\"<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>Events are facts that escape the <strong>routine<\/strong> or the everyday.  Yes one <strong>person<\/strong> he leaves his house and meets a dog or a cat, there will be nothing extraordinary in the situation.  On the other hand, if you run into a <strong>Tiger<\/strong> or with a <strong>gorilla<\/strong>, this meeting will be an event.  Therefore, the situation will become news worth telling and will arouse the interest of the <strong>journalism<\/strong>, which will communicate the event in newspapers, television, radio and digital media.<\/p>\n<p>Within the world of cinema we find films that use the word we are dealing with in their titles.  This would be the case, for example, of \"A happy event.\"  It is a feature film directed by R\u00e9mi Bezan\u00e7on and starring Louise Bourgoin, Pio Marma\u00ef and Josiane Balasko.<\/p>\n<p>Halfway between drama and comedy is this film that tells the life of a couple who will soon see how their day-to-day changes drastically.  Guilty?  The arrival of a baby, which will mean that parents have to face moments full of love and others of pure suffering.<\/p>\n<p>Likewise, in the literature there are also works that use the term we are analyzing.  A clear example is the novel \"The event\", written by Javier Gim\u00e9nez Sasieta.  In it, it is said that a group of researchers makes a discovery that can shake the foundations of society, it is considered to be the most important from a scientific point of view until that moment.  And a journalist will be aware of this who will run into a series of political and power plots, which will expose revenge, secrets, lies and even actions of terrorist groups.<\/p>\n<p>It is important to note that an event is not always unexpected or spontaneous.  The <strong>final<\/strong> of a <strong>soccer tournament<\/strong> it is also an event, even though it was already known for months that the match would be played on day X at stadium Y. In these types of events, press coverage is easier to develop since they are sent, journalists to the scene in advance.<\/p>\n<p>It can be said that the <strong>story<\/strong> is a <strong>science<\/strong> which is responsible for recording past events to bear witness to an era and explain the development of societies.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"kk-star-ratings kksr-auto kksr-align-center kksr-valign-bottom\"\n    data-payload='{&quot;align&quot;:&quot;center&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;3835&quot;,&quot;slug&quot;:&quot;default&quot;,&quot;valign&quot;:&quot;bottom&quot;,&quot;ignore&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;reference&quot;:&quot;auto&quot;,&quot;class&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;count&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;legendonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;readonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;score&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;starsonly&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;best&quot;:&quot;5&quot;,&quot;gap&quot;:&quot;4&quot;,&quot;greet&quot;:&quot;Rate this post&quot;,&quot;legend&quot;:&quot;0\\\/5 - (0 votes)&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;24&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;event&quot;,&quot;width&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;_legend&quot;:&quot;{score}\\\/{best} - ({count} {votes})&quot;,&quot;font_factor&quot;:&quot;1.25&quot;}'>\n            \n<div class=\"kksr-stars\">\n    \n<div class=\"kksr-stars-inactive\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"1\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"2\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"3\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"4\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" data-star=\"5\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    \n<div class=\"kksr-stars-active\" style=\"width: 0px;\">\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n            <div class=\"kksr-star\" style=\"padding-right: 4px\">\n            \n\n<div class=\"kksr-icon\" style=\"width: 24px; height: 24px;\"><\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n                \n\n<div class=\"kksr-legend\" style=\"font-size: 19.2px;\">\n            <span class=\"kksr-muted\">Rate this post<\/span>\n    <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Determining the etymological origin of the term event is the first step&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3836,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3835","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-definition"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/enorcerna.com\/wiki\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3835","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/enorcerna.com\/wiki\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/enorcerna.com\/wiki\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/enorcerna.com\/wiki\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/enorcerna.com\/wiki\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3835"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/enorcerna.com\/wiki\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3835\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/enorcerna.com\/wiki\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3836"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/enorcerna.com\/wiki\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3835"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/enorcerna.com\/wiki\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3835"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/enorcerna.com\/wiki\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3835"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
