词源	concealment n. early 14c. (late 13c. in Anglo-French), "act of hiding or keeping secret," from Old French concelement "concealment, secrecy," from conceler "to hide" (see conceal).

Entries linking to concealment conceal v. early 14c., concelen, "to keep close or secret, forbear to divulge," from Old French conceler "to hide, conceal, dissimulate," from Latin concelare "to hide," from con-, here perhaps an intensive prefix (see con-), + celare "to hide" (from PIE root *kel- (1) "to cover, conceal, save"). From early 15c. as "to hide or shield from observation." Replaced Old English deagan. Related: Concealed; concealing; concealable. updated on February 18, 2018
