Thesaurus & Semantic Spectrum
Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
Derived from the Middle English word 'paiement', which stems from Old French 'paiement', based on the verb 'paier' (to pacify, appease, later to pay), originating from the Latin 'pacare' (to appease, pacify, make peace), from 'pax' (peace). The semantic shift evolved from pacifying a creditor by settling a debt to the actual transfer of money or goods.
