Solution

The correct option is A Latin
The word Family came into English in the 15th century. Its root lies in the Latin word famulus. In earlier times family can be appreciated by looking at the related adjective" familiar", which originally meant that someone was of one's own household, someone closely associated or a servant. It also refer solely to the set of servants in a household.
Thus the correct answer is A.
