EtymologyEdit
From castus (“pure, virtuous”) + -igō (“act, make”), the latter a suffixal form of agō. Related to careō (“I lack”), cassus (“hollow, lacking”). The long -ī- may be explained as the effect of an unattested i-stem noun *castis ("purity, virtue"), formed from the root cas- + -tis from Proto-Indo-European *-tis, cf. the long ī in vectīgal, fūstīgō, fatīgō, perīculum.
