The senses arrived from two separate pathways in Middle English:\n* The grammatical sense came from Old English declīnian, which was borrowed directly from the Latin etymon.\n* All senses except the grammatical sense were derived from those of Old French decliner. Old French itself borrowed the verb from Latin.",
