Etymology of STENCILLED

The word "stencilled" is derived from the verb "stencil". The etymology of "stencil" can be traced back to the Old French word "estancelle", which means "a small frisket". A frisket was a sheet of paper or cardboard with a hole or design cut out of it, used as a guide to produce multiple copies of a design.

The Old French term "estancelle" itself originated from the Vulgar Latin word "stancia", which referred to a standing position or a fixed stationary object. This is likely because the stencil serves as a fixed guide while creating repeated patterns.

Eventually, the word "estancelle" evolved into "stencil" in English, referring to the technique of creating a design or pattern by applying paint or ink through a perforated template.
