Origin
The word "covent" entered the English language in the 13th century from the Old French word "couvent". The Old French word in turn comes from the Latin word "conventus", which means "a coming together" or "an assembly". The Latin word "conventus" is derived from the verb "convenire", which means "to come together" or "to meet".
The word "covent" originally referred to a community of monks or nuns living together under a common rule. Over time, the meaning of the word expanded to include any group of persons living together for a common purpose, such as a community of artists or a group of students.
