    Latin

    [edit]

    Etymology

    [edit]

    From an unattested noun *castis (purity, virtue) +‎ -igō (act, make), the latter a suffixal form of agō. The noun *castis is thought to be formed from careō (to lack) + *-tis; the same root is found in castus (chaste). For the ending, compare fūstīgō and fatīgō, the formations of which also involve ti-derivations.[1]
