Etymology
Learned borrowing from Late Latin pernoct?ti? (“act of spending of the night (doing something, particularly praying)”) + English -ion (suffix forming nouns indicating an action or process, or the result of an action or process). Pernoct?ti? is derived from Latin pernoct?tus (“having spent the night”) + -i? (suffix forming abstract nouns from verbs); pernoct?tus is the perfect passive participle of pernoct? (“to spend the night”), from per- (prefix with the sense of completion or entirety forming verbs) + nox (“night; darkness”) (ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *nók?ts (“night; evening (?)”), possibly from *neg?- (“bare, naked”) in the sense of becoming bare of sunlight).
