Etimoloxía (inglés)

Inherited from Middle French banquet, from Italian banchetto (“light repast between meals, snack eaten on a small bench”, literally “a small bench”), from banco (“bench”), from Lombardic bank (“bench”) / Lombardic panch (“bench”), from Proto-Germanic *bankiz (“bench”). Akin to Old High German bank, banch (“bench”), Old English benc (“bench”). Compare Old French banquet, which only meant "small bench", from the same Proto-Germanic source.
