Ετυμολογία (Αγγλικός)

Κληρονομήθηκε από Μέσα Αγγλικά: faynt

Κληρονομήθηκε από Μέσα Αγγλικά: fainten

In summary

From Middle English faynt, feynt (“weak; feeble”), from Old French faint, feint (“feigned; negligent; sluggish”), past participle of feindre, faindre (“to feign; sham; work negligently”), from Latin fingere (“to touch, handle, form, shape, frame, form in thought, imagine, conceive, contrive, devise, feign”), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *dʰeyǵʰ- (“to mold”). Cognate with feign and fiction and more distantly dough.
