tantamount词源

tantamount

tantamount: [17] Tantamount means etymologically ‘amounting to as much’. It comes from an earlier verb tantamount ‘amount to as much as, be equal to’, which was a lexicalization of the Anglo-Norman expression tant amunter ‘amount to as much’. This was made up of tant ‘as much’, which came via Old French from Latin tantus, and amunter, ancestor of English amount.=> amount, paramount

tantamount (adj.)

1640s, from verbal phrase tant amount \"be equivalent\" (1620s), from Anglo-French tant amunter \"amount to as much\" (late 13c.), from Old French tant \"as much\" (11c., from Latin tantus, from tam \"so;\" see tandem) + amonter \"amount to, go up\" (see amount (v.)).
