To supply means to provide something that is needed or wanted. It often refers to giving goods, resources, or services to people or places.
From Old French 'souplir' and Latin 'supplere' meaning 'to fill up, make full'. Over time, the word shifted from the idea of filling a lack to the broader idea of providing what is needed.
In economics, 'supply' is half of the famous pair 'supply and demand'. Your everyday choices—like buying snacks or streaming a show—quietly shape the supplies companies decide to produce.
