Definition
Subjected to a penalty or consequence for wrongdoing. Made to suffer or pay a price for an offense or violation.
Etymology
From Old French 'puniss-', stem of 'punir', from Latin 'punire' meaning 'to inflict a penalty'. Related to 'poena' meaning 'penalty' or 'punishment'. The concept evolved from physical retribution to various forms of consequences.
Kelly Says
The root of 'punish' connects to the Greek goddess Poine, who personified vengeance and retribution. This reveals how punishment was originally seen as divine justice rather than human legal system, showing the sacred origins of secular law.
