Etimologija

Inherited from Middle French surprendre, from Old French sorprendre. By surface analysis, sur- + prendre. In Old French sorprendre (“to overtake”) (formed from sor- (“over”); cf. modern French sur-) was distinguished from sousprendre (“to surprise, catch unaware (from beneath)”) (formed from sous- (“under”)); the two verbs later became one over time.
