Answer 1

I Am Pretty sure its Latin

Answer 2

English borrowed the verb appropriate directly from Latin, more specifically from Late Latin.

At first formed by the prefix ad- (to) and  proprius (own or proper), becoming the verb appropriare (to make something one's own), then appropriatus and, finally, in English, appropriate.

As a verb, it means to take something without the owner's consent, or to set apart money for a specific purpose.
