Etymology

Borrowed from Old French adjectif, from Latin adiectivus, from adici? + -?vus, from ad- (“to, towards, at”) + iaci? (“throw”). The Latin word adiectivus in turn was a calque of Ancient Greek ?????????? (epithetikón, “added”), a derivative of the compound verb ????????? (epitíth?mi), from which also comes epithet.
