Etymology
From Middle High German phant, from Old High German phant. Only found in base form in continental Germanic languages, such as Dutch pand and Swedish pant (though derivatives also exist in insular Germanic as Icelandic panta (“to reserve, order”)), and of unresolved origin, various Latin sources have been suggested: Latin pāctum (“agreement”) under the supposition of a Low Latin *pantum from *panctum, or a pondus (“weight”) borrowed so early that it preceded the change from Indo-European o to a in Germanic. See: Dutch Nouns '
pand', Swedish Nouns '
pant', Icelandic Nouns '
panta', Latin Nouns '
pāctum'.
