Where this word comes from
From Middle High German kassieren (West Central German, 14th c.), probably from Middle Dutch casseren (13th c.), from Old French casser, quasser (“to annul”). Ultimately from a merger of Latin cassāre and quassāre. The German may later have been reinforced also by Italian cassare, from the same Latin source.
