Etymology
The French verb **hacher** comes from Old French *hacher* (late 12th century), itself derived from the noun *hache* “axe.” That noun is a loan from Latin *hasta* “spear/axe.” Originally meaning “to cut or chop with an axe,” the verb’s sense broadened over time to the general notion of “to chop, mince.”
