Entry denotes the act or manner of entering, or a place of entering. It can also refer to an item recorded in a diary, ledger, or competition. It represents the act of going in and the record of something. Unlike simply being near, entry involves crossing a boundary. Think of it as the beginning scene of a movie. It signifies a transition or a start. It also suggests a record or an item within a collection.
The word "entry" comes from the Old French word "entree," meaning "act of entering." This derives from the Latin "intrare," which means "to go within." The sense of a recorded item evolved from the idea of entering information into a record. It is related to words like "enter" and "entrance."
