Abeyance is Anglo-French in origin and comes from the word abeiance, which means "suspension". It was also later used in English law to mean "condition of property temporarily without an owner" in 1660.
STRATAGEM: (has a lot of possible origins; most likely...) Greek in origin coming from the word strategema, meaning "the act of a general".
OPULENT: Latin -opulentus "op": power, wealth; ulentus: ulent= full of
Heterodox: From Greek Origin in1619
"heteros"- the other

Virtuoso
Year: 1620 "scholar, connoisseur,"
From Italian: virtuoso (pl. virtuosi) meaning "skilled, learned, of exceptional worth,"
Capricious: comes from French who got it from the Italian word "capriccio" which means " a shivering, a shudder." also originates from Italian "capra" meaning "head" and "riccio" meaning "hedgehog."
imbroglio:From Italy meaning imbrogliare "confuse, tangle". from in- "in" + brogliare "embroil"
