Etymologi

Ordet gage stammer oprindeligt fra det gamle franske ord gage, som betyder hurtig; det kom senere til at betyde løfte, især i betydningen af et løfte om at udføre en handling eller opfylde en forpligtelse. Én af de tidligste betydninger af ordet gage på engelsk var en handske, som blev brugt som en symbolsk udfordring fra én person til en anden i en duel. Senere udviklede betydningen sig til at betyde en pant, der blev givet som sikkerhed for opfyldelse af en aftale eller en forpligtelse.
