The word "paradise" refers to a place or state of perfect happiness, often imagined as a beautiful and peaceful environment. It can also represent an ideal or utopian situation, where everything is as one wishes it to be. In various religious beliefs, paradise is often considered a heavenly place where souls go after death if they have lived righteously.
The word "paradise" comes from the Old French term "paradis," which is derived from the Latin "paradisus," and further traced back to the Greek word "paradeisos," meaning "enclosed park." This Greek term is borrowed from the Avestan word "pairidaēza," which means "walled enclosure."
