Usage Examples

Etymology

The noun *aisé* comes from the Old French adjective *aisé* (12th c.) meaning “easy, comfortable,” which is derived from the verb *aisier* “to ease.” *Aisier* traces back to the Latin root *facilis* (easy) through an intermediate Old French form *aise* (ease). In the 17th‑18th centuries the term shifted from an adjective to a noun, referring to a person who lives comfortably or enjoys wealth.
