ラテン語のpercipere, 手に入れる, 捕らえる, per-, complete, -cip, 捕らえる, 理解する, から派生した語源で、語源的にはconceive, percipientと同じ。

perceive (v.)

c. 1300, via Anglo-French parceif, Old North French *perceivre (Old French per?oivre) "perceive, notice, see; recognize, understand," from Latin percipere "obtain, gather, seize entirely, take possession of," also, figuratively, "to grasp with the mind, learn, comprehend," literally "to take entirely," from per "thoroughly" (see per) + capere "to grasp, take" (see capable).

Replaced Old English ongietan. Both the Latin senses were in Old French, though the primary sense of Modern French percevoir is literal, "to receive, collect" (rents, taxes, etc.), while English uses the word almost always in the metaphorical sense. Related: Perceived; perceiving.
