EXCISE Meaning and Definition

1. Excise is a noun with multiple meanings, but is commonly used to refer to a government tax or duty imposed on certain goods, services, or activities. This type of tax is often levied on goods produced or sold within a country's boundaries, such as alcoholic beverages, tobacco, fuel, or luxury items. Excise taxes are typically separate from general sales taxes and are specifically targeted towards specific products or industries.

   As a verb, excise means to remove or cut out a particular object, usually through a surgical procedure. In this context, excision may involve the removal of a growth, tumor, or abnormal tissue from a person's body.

   In a broader sense, excise can be used to describe the act of eliminating or getting rid of something unwanted or harmful. It can refer to the process of deleting or excluding certain parts from a piece of text, or the practice of eradicating corruption or inefficiency from an organization or system.

   Moreover, excise is also used to describe an internal tax or fee on items produced, sold, or used within a country, similar to an excise tax. This usage is mostly common in historical contexts.

   Overall, the term excise refers to a specific tax, the act of removing or cutting out something, eliminating unwanted elements, or an internal tax on goods and services.

Etymology of EXCISE

The word "excise" originated from the Middle Dutch word "excijs" and the Middle French word "accise". Both of these terms were derived from the Late Latin word "accensare", meaning "to tax". The Latin word itself was a combination of the prefix "ad" (meaning "to") and the verb "censere" (meaning "to assess"). Over time, the spellings and pronunciations of the word evolved into "excise" in English, referring specifically to a duty or tax on certain goods.
