Origin

Borrowed from Middle French page, from Latin pāgina, from Proto-Indo-European *peh₂ǵ-. Dou

Borrowed from Middle French page, from Latin pāgina, from Proto-Indo-European *peh₂ǵ-. Doublet of pagina.

From Old French page, possibly via Italian paggio, from Medieval Latin pagius (“servant”), probably from Ancient Greek παιδίον (paidíon, “boy, lad”), from παῖς (paîs, “child”); some sources consider this unlikely and suggest instead Latin pagus (“countryside”), in sense of "boy from the rural regions". Used in English from the 13th century onwards.
