Thesaurus & Semantic Spectrum
Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
Derived from the Latin word 'requiem', meaning 'rest' (the accusative form of 'requies'), which is the opening word of the introit in the traditional Latin mass for the dead ('Requiem aeternam dona eis, Domine'). The second element, 'mass', comes from the Late Latin 'missa', referring to the dismissal of the Eucharistic service. The combined term entered Middle English via ecclesiastical Latin usage in the Christian liturgical tradition.
