Origin

Early 17th century: from obsolete French harpechorde, from late Latin harpa 'harp' + chorda 'string' (the insertion of the letter s being unexplained).

piano from mid 18th century:
Before the mid 18th century the usual musical instrument in comfortable European households was the harpsichord. Its strings are plucked by quills, and the player has little or no control over the length of notes or volume. From the 18th century the pianoforte or fortepiano was developed, with strings struck by hammers, dampers to stop vibration when the keys are released and pedals to regulate the length and volume of notes. The names came from Italian piano ‘soft’ and forte ‘loud’, referring to the innovation of volume control. Soon the shortened form piano appeared, and nowadays pianoforte is a rather formal term for a piano, whereas fortepiano tends to refer to early forms of the instrument. The harpsichord (early 17th century) got its name from Late Latin harpa ‘harp’ and chorda ‘string’.
