Etymology of IMPETRATE

The word "impetrate" is derived from the Latin verb "impetrare", which means "to obtain" or "to achieve". "Impetrare" is a combination of the prefix "im-" (meaning "in" or "toward") and the verb "petere" (meaning "to seek" or "to ask"). Therefore, "impetrate" originally meant to seek or ask for something with determination, and it eventually came to be used more specifically to refer to obtaining or securing something through persistent request or petitioning.
