Explanation:

  The word novel derives from the Italian "novella" that could be translated as "new", "news", or "a short story of something new". This Italian word also derives from the earliest definition in the Latin language "novella". It meant "new things". This was also taken by the French language that adopts it as "nouvelle".

  So the word novel is an adaptation from the Latin word and the further adaptations of the other languages.
