Etymology
The word derives from the Arabic triliteral root خ-ط-ط, which carries the sense of lines and marking. It is the passive participle of the form II verb خَطَّطَ, meaning to draw lines or to lay out. From the literal idea of something drawn out on a surface came the figurative sense of a plan or design.
