Chastity, meaning virginity/celibacy, is from the Old French chastité, from Latin castitatem, (purity) from castus, which is also the root for 'caste' which means 'pure, separated, cut-off' or 'to be cut off from',as in the Hindu Caste System.
The Latin castus is also the root for the word 'castrate'.
Chastise (US chastize) is from Old French chastier, from Latin castigare, 'to punish', but which literally means 'to make pure'. Castigare is from castus (pure) + agere (to do), and is also the basis for the English word 'castigate'.
