Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymon: French parvis.
Etymology: < Anglo-Norman and Middle French parvis (c1223 in Old French in sense ‘place in front of a church or cathedral’ (c1200 as parevis ); c1220 in sense ‘paradise’ (c1100 as pareïs , c1185 as parewis )) < post-classical Latin paradisus paradise n., in the Middle Ages also a name given to the court or porch in front of St Peter's at Rome, and to the courts in front of other churches (8th cent.; from 12th cent. in British sources; see Du Cange for detailed discussion), also used to denote an enclosed space or room for academic disputations (from 14th cent. in British sources); also in forms paravisus, parvisus, parvisius (from mid 13th cent. in British and continental sources; probably < French).Use of the word in sense 1b apparently arose as a result of a misunderstanding of quot. 1745 at sense 1a.
1.
a. An enclosed area or court in front of a building (esp. a cathedral or church), frequently surrounded by columns; a single portico or colonnade in front of a church; a porch.
