spice: spice: [13] Spice is ultimately the same word as species. It comes via Old French espice from Latin speciēs ‘a(chǎn)ppearance, kind’. In late Latin its plural came to be used for ‘goods, wares’, probably from the notion of a particular ‘sort’ of merchandise, and by the time the word reached English its usage had narrowed still further to ‘a(chǎn)romatic plant substances of oriental or tropical origin, used in cooking’.
