Origin

Late Middle English (in the sense 'urge to do something good or bad'): from Old French abeter, from a- (from Latin ad 'to, at') + beter 'hound, urge on'.

If you abet someone these days you are very likely to be up to no good, but this was not always the case. Since the late 18th century the word has mainly been found as aid and abet, ‘to help and encourage someone in some wrongdoing’, but in its early use to abet someone was simply to urge them to do something, not necessarily bad. It comes from the Old French word abeter, which could also mean ‘to encourage a hound to bite’. bait (Middle English) has a similar root.
