Nguồn gốc từ
ine-pro From Middle English champioun, from Old French champion, from campio (combatant in a duel, champion), from *kampijō (fighter), from *kampijō (combat soldier), a derivative of *kampijan (to battle, to campaign), itself a derivative of *kamp (battlefield, battle), ultimately a borrowing in West-Germanic from Latin campus (a field, a plain, a place of action).
