compensative

/kɔ̃.pɑ̃.sa.tiv/ adj

that compensates for something; compensatory

Word Origin Compensative comes from Latin compensare, literally 'to weigh together' — com- 'together' + pensare 'to weigh'. The idea: balancing scales by weighing one thing against another. Pensare is from pendere 'to hang, weigh', and the PIE root *spend- originally meant 'to make an offering', which involved weighing out goods. Related words: expense (weighing out money), dispense (weigh out, distribute), pension (a payment weighed out), and pensive (weighing thoughts, thoughtful).
