REP-er-twahr · noun
LatinFrenchEnglish
Origin
English borrowed repertoire from French répertoire, which came from Middle French repertoire, tracing back to Late Latin repertōrium, meaning an inventory or list.
Journey
The word began as a term for a list or inventory in Late Latin, and that sense of a catalogued collection carried through French into English, where it settled into describing the full range of works or skills a person has ready to perform.
Related words
It's a doublet of repertory — the two words descend from the same Late Latin root, repertōrium, but arrived in English by slightly different paths.
