Etymology
Inherited from Old French droit (spelled dreit in Early Old French, such as the Oaths of Strasbourg), inherited from Late Latin drictus, syncopated form of Latin dīrēctus. Doublet of direct. In Middle French, it was for a time spelled droict to reflect the original Latin etymology. See: Latin Adjectives '
dīrēctus'.
