    Etymologie

    () From French prestidigitation :from French preste (“nimble, quick”) ::from Italian presto :::from Late Latin praestus, ("ready at hand") :+ Latin digitus (“finger”) :+ noun of process suffix -ation ::from Latin perfect passive participle suffix -atus ::+ suffix -io. * Note: despite the phonetic similarities, the words prestidigitator and prestidigitation have different origins than prestige, even though this in the past has meant "delusion, illusion, trick".
