editEtymology
editInherited from Sanskrit परिवर्तते (parivartate, “to exchange, change, turn around”), a compound of परि- (pari-, “around”) + वर्तते (vartate, “to turn”). Within Sanskrit, the word परिवर्तते (parivartate) evolved multiple meanings, with the original meaning of "turning around" undergoing a semantic shift, becoming a word to mean change, before being used to mean the exchanging of items.
