Etymology of PRONOUNCES

The word "pronounces" is derived from the Middle English word "pronouncen", which originated from the Old French word "pronuncier". The Old French term can be traced back to the Latin word "pronuntiare", which consists of two parts: "pro" (meaning "forth", "forward", or "in favor of") and "nuntiare" (meaning "to announce" or "to report"). Therefore, the etymology of "pronounces" reflects its origin in Latin and subsequent development in Old French and Middle English before becoming the word as we know it today.
