Etymology of NO PITY

The etymology of the phrase "no pity" can be understood by examining the origins of its constituent words.

First, let's consider the word "no". The word "no" derives from the Old English word "nā", which can be traced back to the Proto-Germanic word "*ne", meaning "not" or "no". In various languages, including Spanish, French, and Latin, similar negative words can be found with corresponding meanings.

The word "pity" comes from the Old French term "pité", which also gave rise to the English word "pity" in the late 13th century. "Pité" was borrowed from the Latin term "pietas", meaning "piety" or "compassion". Eventually, "pity" acquired the sense of feeling sympathy or compassion towards someone's suffering.
