Where this word comes from

Internationalism, based on the international name stem Vatikan-, ultimately from Latin Vātī̆cānus (“Vatican Hill”), with the Norwegian neuter definite singular ending -et (“definite singular ending”), literally “the Vatican”. The Latin name is of unknown further origin; the connection with vāticinārī (“to prophesy”) is folk-etymological.
