1. c.1374, "to place (oneself) under the control of another," from L.
submittere "to yield, lower, let down, put under, reduce," from
sub "under" +
mittere "let go, send." Sense of "refer to another for consideration" first recorded 1560.
2. From Middle English submitten, borrowed from Latin submittere, infinitive of submittō (“place under, yield”), from sub (“under, from below, up”) + mitto (“to send”). Compare upsend. See: Latin '
submittere'.
