Etymology

1. c.1225, "come to (a person) to comfort or benefit," from O.Fr. visiter, from L. visitare "to go to see, come to inspect," frequentative of visere "behold, visit" (a person or place), from pp. stem of videre "to see, notice, observe" (see vision). Originally of the deity, later of pastors and doctors (c.1300), general sense of "pay a call" is from 1626. Meaning "come upon, afflict" (in ref. to sickness, punishment, etc.) is recorded from c.1340. The noun is 1621, from the verb. Visitor is attested from 1426; sports sense is from 1900.
2. From Middle English visiten, from Old French visiter, from Latin vīsitō, frequentative of vīsō (“behold, survey”), from videō (“see”). Cognate with Old Saxon wīsōn (“to visit, afflict”), archaic German weisen (“to visit, afflict”). Displaced native Old English sēċan (“to visit”) and sōcn (“a visit”).
3. The noun is from French visite or the verb. Doublet of visite. See: Latin 'vīsitō', German, old spelling 'weisen'.
