fantasia
English
Etymology
Borrowed from Italian fantasia (“imagination, fancy, fantasy; musical composition with improvisational characteristics”), from Latin phantasia (“fancy, fantasy; imagination”), borrowed from Ancient Greek ????????? (phantasí?, “appearance, look; display, presentation; pageantry, pomp; impression, perception; image”), from ????????? (phántasis) + -??? (-í?, suffix forming feminine abstract nouns). ????????? (Phántasis) is derived from ???????? (phantáz?, “to make visible, show; to become visible, appear; to imagine”), from ????? (phaín?, “to appear; to reveal; to shine”), ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *b?eh?- (“to shine”). The English word is a doublet of fancy, fantasy, phantasia, and phantasy.
