Unnumbered source etymology
Original entry ↗verb
Selected source glosses provide context, not a complete modern definition inventoryTo add, include.
From Middle French adjouter (modern French ajouter), from Old French ajoster, from Vulgar Latin *adiuxtāre. The spelling was perhaps reinforced by folk-etymological association with Classical Latin adiūtō (“to help”) (which Samuel Johnson gives as the etymology and meaning). Possibly a doublet of adjust.
