Origin: Of multiple origins. Partly a borrowing from French. Partly a borrowing from Latin. Etymons: French ambassiate, ambassade; Latin ambaciata.

Etymology: Partly (i) < Anglo-Norman ambassiate and Middle French ambassade, ambaxade, (north-eastern; rare) ambassiade (French ambassade ) diplomatic or political mission (a1356), group sent on a diplomatic or political mission (1419), ambassador, envoy (a1444; the sense ‘message’ is apparently not paralleled in French until later: 1561) < Italian ambasciata official message (c1243 as †ambaxiata ), diplomatic mission (a1292) < Old Occitan ambayssada diplomatic mission (c1150 as anbaissat (masculine) in the sense ‘message’) < an unattested form *ambaissa ( < post-classical Latin ambascia , ambassia : see below) + Old Occitan -ada -ade suffix; and partly (ii) < post-classical Latin ambaciata, ambasciata, ambassiata, ambasiata, ambaxiata diplomatic mission, embassy (frequently from 13th cent. in continental (especially Italian) sources and from 14th cent. in British sources), use as noun of feminine past participle of ambasciare to communicate, to transmit (an order or message) (8th cent.) < ambascia , ambassia mission, errand, task (6th cent. in Salic Laws), trip, journey (6th cent. in Burgundian Laws) < classical Latin ambactus servant, retainer (see note) + -ia -ia suffix¹. Compare ambassy n., embassy n., and embassade n.Compare Catalan ambaixada (first half of the 14th cent.), Spanish †ambaxada (now embajada : see embassade n.), and also the Old French nouns cited at ambassy n. and embassy n. Etymology of the Latin word. Classical Latin ambactus was borrowed < a Gaulish compound (attested as a personal name on coin legends) with the sense ‘a person who goes around, a person who circulates’ < ambi- (ultimately < the same Indo-European base as umbe prep.) + a cognate of classical Latin āct- , past participial stem of agere to drive, to come, go (see act v.). Compare Welsh amaeth ploughman, agriculture (13th cent.), Old Breton ambaith agriculture, and also Early Irish imm-aig to drive around, pursue. The Germanic words cited at amboht n. show early borrowings of the Celtic compound. Origin of specific phrases. In in ambassade at sense 1 after Middle French en ambassade (a1420 or earlier). Formal variation. The α. forms and corresponding forms in the Romance languages directly or indirectly reflect post-classical Latin ambascia and its word family; compare similar forms at ambassador n. Diachronic variation of stress. The position of stress apparently varied in early use. The existence of a form with second-syllable stress in Middle English is implied by some early quots. for the variant embassade n. which show that word in a metrical context, e.g. quots. c1425, ?a1475 at embassade n. 1.

Now historical and rare.

1. The business or function of an ambassador (chiefly in sense 1, i.e. an envoy or emissary); a political or diplomatic mission or negotiation. Formerly frequently in †in (also of) ambassade: in the role of ambassador; on a diplomatic mission (obsolete). Cf. embassade n. 3.
