Thesaurus & Semantic Spectrum
Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
The word gratis derives directly from the Latin gratis, meaning 'freely, without charge, or for kindness,' which is an ablative plural of gratia meaning 'favor' or 'grace.' Entering English in the late 16th century, it has retained its precise commercial and legal meaning indicating that something is provided completely free of payment.
