Etymology
The French verb **multiplier** comes from the Latin *multiplicāre* “to multiply”, a compound of *multus* “many” and *plicāre* “to fold” (cf. *pliō*). It entered Old French as *multiplicier*, and the spelling was regularized in the 17th century to *multiplier* with the typical French *‑ier* ending that replaced the Latin *‑are*. Thus the word literally means “to fold many times”, i.e., to increase a quantity by repetition.
