Nguồn gốc từ

From Middle English subsistence; partly from Middle French subsistence (modern subsistance) and partly from its etymon subsistentia (substance, reality, in Medieval Latin also stability), from Latin subsistēns, present participle of subsistere (to continue, subsist). Perhaps also partly from subsist + -ence.
