Etymology of EX CITES

The word "excites" is derived from the Latin word "excitare", which means "to call forth, awaken, incite, rouse, stir up". It is formed by combining the prefix "ex-" (meaning "out", "thoroughly") and the verb "citare" (meaning "to move", "to arouse"). The term "excites" was later borrowed into Old French as "exciter" and ultimately entered the English language in the late 14th century.
