[Sca-cooks] Service and Kraut questions from Gwen Cat

[Terry Decker]

In Latin etymology, "com-" is the older form, believed to be derived from 
the Proto-Indo European "kom-."  "Cum-" is associated with Classic Latin 
(1st Century BCE - 3rd Century CE), but the older form was acceptable and 
understood.

Sorry. A bit sleepy, or I wouldn't have mixed Latin with French. But
actually either way it's "cum", originally, on the Latin side: "formé  du 
lat.
cum « avec » (préf. con-*)  et de panis  (pain*)"
