Etymology
Greek borrowed σουίτα directly from French suite, meaning a series or a following. The French word traces back to Vulgar Latin *sequita, from Latin sequi, meaning to follow. The sense of connected hotel rooms and the sense of a set of musical movements both come from this idea of things that follow one another in a series.
