different between sake vs design

English

Etymology 1

From Middle English sake (“sake, cause”), from Old English sacu (“cause, lawsuit, legal action, complaint, issue, dispute”), from Proto-Germanic *sak? (“affair, thing, charge, accusation, matter”), from Proto-Indo-European *seh?g- (“to investigate”). Akin to West Frisian saak (“cause; business”), Low German Saak, Dutch zaak (“matter; cause; business”), German Sache (“thing; matter; cause; legal cause”), Danish sag, Swedish and Norwegian sak, Gothic ???????????????????? (sakj?, “dispute, argument”), Old English s?cn (“inquiry, prosecution”), Old English s?can (“to seek”). More at soke, soken, seek.

Pronunciation

• enPR: s?k, IPA^(key): /se?k/
• Rhymes: -e?k

Noun

sake (plural sakes)

1. cause, interest or account

2. purpose or end; reason

3. the benefit or regard of someone or something
   • 2005, Plato, Sophist. Translation by Lesley Brown. 242a-b.

     But it will be for your sake that we'll undertake to refute this thesis, […]

4. (obsolete except in phrases) contention, strife; guilt, sin, accusation or charge
   • Genesis, 3:17

     And unto Adam He said, Because thou hast hearkened unto the voice of thy wife, and hast eaten of the tree, of which I commanded thee, saying, Thou shalt not eat of it: cursed is the ground for thy sake; in sorrow shalt thou eat of it all the days of thy life.

Usage notes

• The word sake is generally used in constructions of the form "for X's sake" or "for the sake of X", where X is a noun (see the quotations above, for sake of, and for the sake of).

• Garner's Modern American Usage notes it is common to write an apostrophe rather than apostrophe–ess in this construction when the noun ends in an /s/ or /z/ sound: for appearance' sake, for goodness' sake.
