canevas
French
editEtymology
editFrom a combination of Old French chanevas, chenevas and Old Picard canevach. The Old French comes from a root ultimately derived from Latin *canapus, from cannabis, such as that of chanvre, possibly through a Vulgar Latin root *cannabāceus or *cannapāceus, and the Old Picard comes from Old Northern French canevas, of ultimately the same origin as the previous word. Compare English canvas, itself borrowed from Old Northern French through Anglo-Norman.
