Where this word comes from

Inherited from Latin facere. The original past participle fapt (< Latin factus) has been replaced by an analogical form. An alternative third-person simple perfect, fece (< Latin fēcit) was also found in some dialects. The sense of “to cost” is likely a calque of Greek κάνω (káno).
