The origin of the idiom "take something into account" can be traced back to Middle English. The word "account" in this context refers to consideration or regard. The usage of "take into account" evolved from the combination of the verb "take" and the noun "account," which meant to include or consider something when assessing a situation. Over time, the phrase became firmly established in the English language, and it has been in use for several centuries.
