Usage Examples

Etymology

French **violation** comes from the Old French *violation* (14th c.), itself borrowed from the Latin *violationem* (accusative of *violation*). The Latin noun is built on the verb *violare* “to break, transgress, violate”, which in turn derives from the Indo‑European root *viol‑* meaning “to break, damage.” Thus the word literally means “the act of breaking or violating.”
