Etymology
1. c.1225, from O.Fr.
departir, from L.L.
departire "divide" (transitive), from
de- "from" +
partire "to part, divide," from
pars (gen.
partis) "a part." As a euphemism for "to die" (to
depart this life) it is attested from 1501. Fr.
department meant "group of people" (as well as "departure"), from which Eng. borrowed sense of "separate division" (c.1735) found in
department store (1847). Transitive in Eng. lingers in some senses; the wedding service was
till death us depart until 1662.
2. From Old French departir, from Late Latin departiō (“to divide”), from dē- (“away from”) + partiō (“part, divide”). See: Old French '
departir'.
