verb

Syllable Decomposition

compter

from Latin computare (to count, to calculate, to take into account, to enumerate) which also gives the Old French conter. The scholarly spelling compter, which appeared in the 13th century (specialized in the sense of 'to calculate') and which gradually imposed itself, is an artificial doubling of the verb conter.
