OriginOld English panne, of West Germanic origin; related to Dutch pan, German Pfanne, perhaps based on Latin patina 'dish'. The word pan in the sense of something you cook with is a common West Germanic word, which may have been an early borrowing from Latin patina ‘dish’. The same Latin word is the source, via Italian, of patina (early 18th century), perhaps because of the green film that appears on old copper dishes. The verb to pan out (mid 19th century) comes from the use of a shallow pan to get gold from river sand. See also panic, panorama
