confiscate
confiscate: [16] Confiscate’s etymological connotations are financial: the Latin verb confīscāre meant ‘appropriate to the public treasury’. It was formed from the collective prefix com- and fiscus. This meant originally ‘rush-basket’; it was applied to the baskets used by tax collectors, and hence came to mean ‘public treasury’ (English gets fiscal from it). The looser sense of confiscate, ‘seize by authority’, dates from the early 19th century.
