Etymology

Inherited from Old Spanish costumne, from Vulgar Latin *cōstūmen or *cōstūmine (compare Catalan costum, French coutume, Italian costume, Portuguese costume), contracted form of *cōsuētūmen, from Latin cōnsuētūdinem, from cōnsuēscō (“to accustom, habituate”), from con- (“with”) + suēscō (“to become accustomed”). Doublet of consuetud, a borrowing.
