Where this word comes from

An Itala and Vulgate morphological calque from Ancient Greek to mirror the proportion (κατα)κληρονομέω ((kata)klēronoméō) :: κληρονομίᾱ (klēronomíā). Like the Greek verb itself, sometimes translating Hebrew יָרַשׁ (“to drive out, occupy, rob, inherit, expel, ruin”). Formally hērēditās + -tō, with haplology for the expected *-itātitō.
