Origin: A borrowing from Latin. Etymon: Latin occurrere.
Etymology: < classical Latin occurrere to present itself, occur, to turn up, arrive, to meet, counter, oppose, to run to meet, run against < ob- ob- prefix + currere to run (see current adj.). Compare Italian occorrere to happen, befall (a1342), Anglo-Norman occurre to assemble (13th cent.), Old Occitan occorre to happen (1400), Middle French occurrir to happen, French †occurrer to meet with, to happen (17th cent.).In β. forms (when not simply showing uncertainty of spelling of an unstressed syllable) probably partly by association with classical Latin accurrere to run to (see accurrent adj.); compare also Middle French, French accourir (11th cent. in Old French). The irregular forms occuring for the present participle and occured for the past tense and past participle are found from the 18th cent. onwards.
