    ‘Classic‘ comes from the Latin ‘classicus,‘ meaning ‘belonging to the highest class,‘ which referred to works of literature or art that were considered exemplary or authoritative. ‘Charm‘ derives from the Latin ‘carmen,‘ meaning ‘song‘ or ‘poem,‘ which later evolved to imply a sense of enchantment or appeal.
