Word Originlate Middle English: from Anglo-Norman French reprisaille, from medieval Latin reprisalia (neuter plural), based on Latin repraehens- ‘seized’, from the verb repraehendere ‘seize, check, rebuke’, from re- (expressing intensive force) + prehendere ‘seize’. The current sense dates from the early 18th cent.
