Etymologie

Inherited from Middle French cerche, from Old French cerche, probably from a Vulgar Latin *circa (compare northern Italian cerca, Spanish and Portuguese cerca), from the feminine of Latin circus. In modern French, the form cerce was probably due to progressive assimilation or from influence from cerceau.
