Thesaurus & Semantic Spectrum
Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
Originating from the late Middle English term 'indenture', derived from the Old French 'indenture', based on the Latin 'dentatus' (toothed). Historically, it referred to legal documents written in duplicate on a single sheet and separated by a jagged ('indented') edge so the matching parts could be verified, evolving to describe servants bound by such formal contracts.
