Etymology
Inherited from Old French juste, in this form probably borrowed from Latin iūstus, jūstus, from Proto-Italic *jowestos, from Proto-Indo-European *h₂yew-. The Old French form just may have been inherited, however, and perhaps later modified based on the Latin. See: Latin Adjectives '
iūstus'.
