Origin

Late Middle English (in the sense 'sign at the bottom of a document'): from Latin subscribere, from sub- 'under' + scribere 'write'.

  • underwrite from Late Middle English:

    This is first recorded in the literal sense ‘sign at the bottom of a document’, what an insurer would do at the bottom or end of an insurance document. Nowadays the important thing is that they are guaranteeing to pay a certain sum if something is damaged or lost. In business contexts like these, underwrite was probably a direct translation of Latin subscribere ‘to write underneath’, the source of subscribe (Late Middle English), which people originally used in the same way.

Rhymes

ascribe, bribe, gybe, imbibe, jibe, proscribe, scribe, transcribe, tribe, vibe
