Common Misspellings for AMNESTIED

Etymology of AMNESTIED

The word "amnestied" is derived from the noun "amnesty". The term "amnesty" originated from the Ancient Greek word "amnestia", which means "forgetfulness" or "pardoning". It comes from the root word "amne", which means "without" or "not" in Greek, and "histēmi", meaning "to stand" or "to cause to stand". In Latin, "amnesia" took on the meaning of "forgetfulness", and eventually, "amnesty" entered English in the late 16th century, referring to a general pardon or forgiveness of past offenses. The verb form "amnestied" is constructed by adding the suffix "-ed" to "amnesty".
