@Per utramque cavernam This is said to be a borrowing, but it seems to have already existed in Middle French. Could you verify? ←₰-→ Lingo Bingo Dingo (talk) 14:36, 5 February 2019 (UTC)Reply

@Lingo Bingo Dingo: I'm not familiar with Middle French, but the Dictionnaire du Moyen Français has an entry for fugitif, so I've added it to the entry. However, I think it still makes sense to call it a borrowing from Latin in French; I do that too for learned French terms ultimately derived from Ancient Greek but that transitioned through Latin (I'm speaking of the likes of Empédocle, not beurre). I won't object to your changing it to {{der}} if you prefer, though. Per utramque cavernam 18:11, 5 February 2019 (UTC)Reply
