damage

damage: [14] Damage comes from Latin damnum ‘loss, damage’ (source of English damn). It passed into Old French as dam, from which was formed the derivative damage. English borrowed and has preserved the Old French form, but in modern French it has become dommage. Besides damn, another English relative is indemnity [15], ultimately from Latin indemnis ‘undamaged’.
=> damn, indemnity
