pail

• n. バケツ、バケツ

おそらくラテン語のpatella（小皿、小ペール缶）が語源で、語源的にはpan（パン）、patella（ペール缶）と同じ、patina（パティーナ）の小単語接尾辞からきている。

pail (n.)

mid-14c., of uncertain origin, probably from Old French paele, paelle "cooking or frying pan, warming pan;" also a liquid measure, from Latin patella "small pan, little dish, platter," diminutive of patina "broad shallow pan, stewpan" (see pan (n.)).

Old English had p?gel "wine vessel," but etymology does not support a connection. This Old English word possibly is from Medieval Latin pagella "a measure," from Latin pagella "column," diminutive of pagina (see page (n.1)).
