Origin

Mid 16th century: from ecclesiastical Latin superintendent- 'overseeing', from the verb superintendere (see superintend).

intend from Middle English:
The early spelling was entend which meant ‘direct the attention to’, from Old French entendre from Latin intendere ‘intend, extend, direct’, literally ‘stretch towards’. Intense (Late Middle English) comes from a past form of the Latin, and superintendent (mid 16th century) is from Latin superintendere ‘to oversee’.

Rhymes

appendant, ascendant, attendant, codependent, defendant, descendant, descendent, intendant, interdependent, pendant, pendent, splendent, transcendent
