" banderole "

[Noun]  | "ban*de*role" | \ ˈban-də-ˌrōl \

1: a long narrow forked flag or streamer

2: a long scroll bearing an inscription or a device

Origin: 1562 ;

 Earlier banaroll, bandrol, bannerall, borrowed from Middle French banderolle (16th century), bannerolle (15th century), probably borrowed from Italian banderuola (or an equivalent in Upper Italian), diminutive of bandiera "banner, pennant," borrowed from Old Occitan, from banda "troop, {see: |band:3|band:3}" (or its source, Late Latin bandum "flag, standard") + -iera {see: |-er:2|-er:2};

  * Note : Old Occitan bandiera corresponds exactly in sense and suffixation to Old French baniere (see: {banner:1|banner:1}). Though the bases of each word are distinct, their derivatives have in effect coalesced. This is also true of other words derived ultimately from, on the one hand, Germanic *bannan- "call on, order, summon, etc.," and on the other, Gothic bandwo "sign, signal." Compare Italian bandire "to announce, proclaim, proscribe" (see: {bandit|bandit}), overlapping in sense with Old French banir (see: {banish|banish}), both dependent in part on Medieval Latin bannīre, bandīre, with both forms.;
