The word "equipt" is actually the past participle form of the verb "equip". Its etymology can be traced back to the French word "équiper" which means "to fit out" or "to equip". The French word comes from the Latin word "exquīpare" which is a combination of "ex-" (meaning "out") and "quīpare" (meaning "to prepare"). Over time, "equipt" evolved from Old French to Middle English and eventually to its current form in Modern English.
