Malleable: Latin "malleare"-to beat with a hammer; capable of being adapted
Paramount: 1531; Comes from the Anglo French word "above" which can mean in place of or order. Also in 1339 the old French world in which it is broken down into par- "by" amont- "up." In addition the latin phrase "per ad montem" means to the hill.
Ok so I know thats a lot, but I was not sure which one to put--- ANY IMPUT MRS. MOON?
nondescript (Latin): Meaning not easily described or classified.
Kathryn (and everyone), I would go with the oldest meaning and the Latin one.

Cupidity: 1400s. From the Latin word "Cupiditas" meaning desire.
Eschew:
From Middle English, from Anglo-French eschiver (third-person present eschiu) of Germanic origin.
