Этимология

() From French prestige (“illusion, fascination, enchantment, prestige”) : Latin praestigium (“a delusion, an illusion”) :: praestinguere (“to obscure,extinguish”) ::: prae (“before”) + stinguere (“to extinguish”); or :: praestringere (“to blind; to blindfold; to dazzle or confuse someone”) ::: prae (“before”) + stringere (“to press, tighten, compress”). * Note: despite the phonetic similarities and prestige's old meaning of "delusion, illusion, trick", the word has a different root than prestidigitator and prestidigitation.
