What if 'pass' was actually the adjective all along? Passports are ports. What kind of port? The kind that lets you pass, a port of pass, passport

Why is a word "borrowed" if there is never an intention or expectation for it to be returned?

In Fr, the adj can be before or after the noun. IDK why it’s so weird when someone says it wrong. Reminds me of your video about adj order in Eng.

Yes it’s from French, but that’s not the reason it’s pass port. In French passe is not a noun being described by the adjective port. Passe is a verb

In French the “pass” isn’t a noun, it’s a verb. In english it would be closer to “port passer”, a thing that passes a port.

I believe most passports still have French translations because that traditionally was the primary language of diplomacy.

Passe is the conjugation of passer. Verb. Je passe la douane. Is how it would be used today.

Must be same reason for why it’s “pastime” not “time pass”. In Portuguese, for example, the word is “passa-tempo”

Also, "porte" as in door or gate, not sea port. A pass that allows you access to a city or building ... or through a border.

Isn't it more literally translated as doorpass (or perhaps, in 1400s French, gatepass) ?

The main pages of a UK passport still include French translations of terms, even after leaving the EU.

Adjectives that describe age, quality, beauty, or size go before the noun in French (typically)

Passports are international so go by most common worldwide sentence structure, noun before adjective. I Have no idea if this is true I just made it up
