vindicate: [16] Latin vindex meant ‘claimant, defender, avenger’. From it was derived vindicāre ‘claim, defend, revenge’, which gave English vindicate, as well as (via French) avenge [14], revenge [14], and vengeance [13]. Vindicāre in turn formed the basis of vindicta ‘vengeance’, from which English gets vindictive [17] and (via Italian) vendetta [19].
