Online Etymology Dictionary: surprise (n.) c.1457, "unexpected attack or capture," from M.Fr. surprise "a taking unawares," from noun use of pp. of O.Fr. surprendre "to overtake," from sur- "over" + prendre "to take," from L. prendere, contracted from prehendere "to grasp, seize" (see prehensile). Meaning "something unexpected" first recorded 1592, that of "feeling caused by something unexpected" is 1608. Meaning "fancy dish" is attested from 1708. >From these definitions it looks pretty clear that "somebody" is indeed going to be taken unawares, overtaken, grasped, and seized -- by Nobody :-) ------------------------ Yahoo!
