Etimology of Script
(You may find script at the world legal encyclopedia and the etimology of more terms).
late 14c., “something written,” earlier scrite (c. 1300), from Old French escrit “piece of writing, written paper; credit note, IOU; deed, bond” (Modern French écrit) from Latin scriptum “a writing, book; law; line, mark,” noun use of neuter past participle of scribere “to write,” from PIE *skribh- “to cut, separate, sift” (source also of Greek skariphasthai “to scratch an outline, sketch,” Lettish skripat “scratch, write,” Old Norse hrifa “scratch”), from root *(s)ker- (1) “to cut” (see shear (verb)) on the notion of carving marks in stone, wood, etc. Meaning “handwriting” is recorded from 1860. Theatrical use, short for manuscript, is attested from 1884. The importance of Rome to the spread of civilization in Europe is attested by the fact that the word for “write” in Celtic and Germanic (as well as Romanic) languages derives from scribere (French écrire, Irish scriobhaim, Welsh ysgrifennu, German schreiben). The cognate (having the same ancestor) Old English scrifan means “to allot, assign, decree” (see shrive; also compare Old Norse skript “penance”) and Modern English uses write (verb) to express this action.
