Etymologie (Engels)

In summary

From Middle French pause (14th c. in the musical sense), from Latin pausa. The Middle French form may be merely a relatinized spelling of Old French pose (“moment, period of time”, 12th c., whence Dutch poos), itself an early borrowing (if not inheritance) from the same Latin noun; at any rate both forms cannot be separated entirely.
