eucharist: [14] The Greek-based eucharist corresponds to native English thanksgiving. It comes via Old French eucariste and late Latin eucharistia from Greek eukharistíā ‘gratitude’. This was a derivative of eukháristos ‘grateful’, a compound adjective formed from the prefix eu- ‘well’ and kharízesthai ‘show favour’. The verb in turn was formed from the noun kháris ‘favour, grace’ (source of English charisma [19] and probably a distant relative of yearn [OE]). => yearn
Eucharist (n.)
"sacrament of the Lord's Supper, the Communion," mid-14c., from Old French eucariste, from Late Latin eucharistia, from Greek eukharistia "thanksgiving, gratitude," later "the Lord's Supper," from eukharistos "grateful," from eu "well" (see eu-) + stem of kharizesthai "show favor," from kharis "favor, grace," from PIE root *gher- (5) "to like, want" (see hortatory). Eukharisteo is the usual verb for "to thank, to be thankful" in the Septuagint and Greek New Testament. Related: Eucharistic.
