Etymology of LOANBANK

The term "loanbank" is a compound word derived from the combination of the words "loan" and "bank".

The word "loan" originated from the Middle English word "loon" or "lone", which meant "something lent" or "to lend". It can be traced back to the Old Norse word "lán" meaning "loan" or "gift". The Old Norse word was further influenced by the Old English word "lǣn", which meant "lending" or "the action of letting something be borrowed".

On the other hand, the word "bank" has a different etymology. It is derived from the Old Italian word "banco" which referred to a bench or a money exchange table. This term was later adapted into various languages, including French and English, with the meaning of a financial institution that accepts deposits and lends money.
