remedy
remedy: [13] Remedy is closely related to medicine. It comes via Anglo-Norman remedie from Latin remedium ‘medicine’ a noun formed from the same stem, med-, as produced medērī ‘heal’ (source of English medical, medicine, etc). The extension in meaning from ‘medicine’ to ‘something that corrects a wrong’ took place in Latin.
