Forms: 1700s– châlet, 1800s– chalet.

Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymon: French chalet.

Etymology: < French chalet hut or cabin on alpine pastures used for shelter and for the manufacture of butter and cheese (1723; popularized by Rousseau 1761), rustic dwelling, wooden house or cottage of a kind traditionally occupied by Swiss peasants, house or villa built in this style (19th cent.) < French regional (Switzerland) chalet , probably < a base from a pre-Romance language of the western Mediterranean (see below) + -et -et suffix¹.The same base is probably reflected by Occitan cala, Catalan cala, Spanish cala, Italian cala, all in the sense ‘shelter’, as well as by numerous place names. The spelling châlet apparently shows a misconception among English writers, having no basis in French orthography.

a. A house or cabin of a type traditional in the Swiss and French Alps, typically made of wood and having wide, overhanging eaves, originally used for shelter and for the manufacture of butter and cheese by herders bringing cattle to mountain pastures during the summer months. Hence: any house or cottage built in this style; (now esp.) a building of this type constructed to serve as accommodation for skiers or other holidaymakers in a mountainous area.In quot. 1784: a number of such buildings grouped together.
