- commend (v.) mid-14c., comenden, "praise, mention approvingly," from Latin commendare "to commit to the care or keeping (of someone), to entrust to; to commit to writing;" hence "to set off, render agreeable, praise," from com-, here probably an intensive prefix (see com-), + mandare "to commit to one's charge" (see mandate (n.)). A doublet of command.
