köken: Borrowed from Swedish kontor. Further etymology The Swedish term from Middle Low German kontôr, komtôr, komptor (“commercial branch; writing room; counting desk/table”), from Middle Dutch contoor, contoir, comptoir, from Middle French contoir, comtoir, comptoir, from conter, compter (“to count”) + -oir (“instrument suffix”), from Latin computāre and -tōrium.
From earlier officio, borrowed from Latin officium (“duty, office”), derived from ops (“wealth, resources”), ultimately from the Proto-Indo-European root *h₃ep- (“to work”). Doublet of opificio and officina.
