It was probably borrowed into English from the Spanish form garante (this is suggested by early spellings garanté and garante in English), and later changed to guarantee through confusion with guaranty [16] (itself originally a variant of warranty).=> warrantguarantee (n.)1670s, "person that gives security," altered (perhaps via Spanish garante or confusion with legalese ending -ee), from earlier garrant "warrant that the title to a property is true" (early 15c.), from Old French garant "defender, protector; warranty; pledge; justifying evidence," from Germanic (see warrant (n.)). For form evolution, see gu-. Sense of the "pledge" itself (which is properly a guaranty) developed 18c.guarantee (v.)1791, "to be surety for," from guarantee (n.). Garanten in this sense is from early 15c. Related: Guaranteed; guaranteeing." |
