Is the phrase Italian or Spanish in origin?

The phrase "in origin" is of Latin origin.

Here's why:

* Origin comes from the Latin word "origo", meaning "beginning" or "source".

* In is a preposition that also has Latin roots.

While Italian and Spanish both have Latin roots, the phrase itself isn't specifically from either language. It's a common phrase used in English that directly derives from Latin.
