Etymology of COMPTROLL

The word "comptroll" is not a widely recognized or commonly used word in English. It appears to be a misspelling or variation of the word "comptroller".

The term "comptroller" has its roots in the French language. In Old French, the word was "controllour", which derived from the word "contreroller" or "contrerouler". "Contreroller" combines the Latin word "contra" meaning "against" or "opposite", and "roller", meaning "to roll" or "to check".

Over time, "controllour" transformed into "comptroller" in Middle English, with the "o" added to reflect the Latin prefix "com-" meaning "with" or "together".
