About This Root
From Latin pretium (price, value, reward), arriving through Old French pris. Variants include priz-, preci-, and prai-. The core idea of value appears in price, priceless (beyond value), and precious (of great worth). The appraisal branch (appraise, praise) reflects the act of assessing worth. Prize shares the same origin.
