Étymologie (Anglais)

Hérité de moyen anglais: ymage

Appartenant à ancien anglais: biliþe

In summary

From Middle English ymage, borrowed from Old French image, from Latin imāgō (“a copy, likeness, image”), from Proto-Indo-European *h₂eym-; the same PIE root is the source of imitari (“to copy, imitate”); see imitate. Doublet of imago.
