Etymology

From German Abiturient, from Latin abituriēns, from both abiī, a form of abeō (“I depart, go away”), from ab- (“from, away from”), from ab (“from, away from, of”), from Proto-Italic *ab, from Proto-Indo-European *h₂epó (“off, away”) + eō (“I go, move”), from Proto-Italic *eō (“I go”), from earlier *ejō, from Proto-Indo-European *h₁éyti (“to go”), and from -turiō (“I desire, wish”), from Proto-Italic *-tōr + *-eō (from earlier *-ejō), from Proto-Indo-European *-tōr + *-éyeti, from *-yeti (creates transitive imperfective verbs).

Equivalent to abitur +‎ -ent, first part from German Abitur, a shortening of Abiturium, itself short for Latin examen abiturium, from abitureō (“I wish to leave”), desiderative construction of abeō (“I leave, go off”), from both ab- (“from, away from”), from ab (“from, away from, of”), from Proto-Italic *ab, from Proto-Indo-European *h₂epó (“off, away”), and from eō (“I go, move”), from Proto-Italic *eō (“I go”), from earlier *ejō, from Proto-Indo-European *h₁éyti (“to go, be going”), from *h₁ey- (“to go”). Last part from Latin -ēns (genitive singular -entis), suffix of present participles of verbs in the 2nd, 3rd and 4th conjugations.
