stipulor

stipulor

Latin

Alternative forms

• stipulō

Etymology

Probably derived from stipula (“blade or wisp of straw”), that played a symbolic role when the partners formally confirmed the agreement.[1] Alternatively, confer Sanskrit स्थाप्य (sthāpya, “pledge; to be kept to, checked, restrained; to fix, institute, regulate”). (Can this⁽⁺⁾ etymology be sourced?)
