The term "demigauntlet" is a combination of two words: "demi" and "gauntlet".
The word "demi" comes from the French language, where it originally meant "half" or "partial". It entered the English language in the 14th century and has been used to convey the meaning of "half" or "partly" ever since.
The word "gauntlet" has a different etymology. It traces back to the Old Swedish word "gatlopp", which means "a running lane". In medieval times, when prisoners were forced to run a path between two rows of people who would strike them with various objects, it was known as running the "gauntlet". Over time, the term came to represent the protective gloves worn by knights or soldiers in battle, which were made of steel plates linked together.
