Middle English spellings, dating from the 13th century, include playd, playt, plyte (there are several others). The Middle English forms come from Anglo-French plit, pleit, pleite, plite (with other variants) “situation, condition, state,” literally, “a fold, wrinkle.” (The Middle English and Anglo-French meanings were originally neutral in tone.) The Anglo-French (and Old French pleit, ploit with the same meanings) derives from Vulgar Latin plictum, a noun use of the past participle, from Latin plicitum “folded,” from plicāre “to fold, flex, bend.”
The modern meaning of plight “unfavorable condition” and its current spelling arose toward the end of the 14th century, and is due to a conflation with the native Old English plyht, pliht “peril, risk, danger, risky promise or engagement,” a noun that is the source of the unrelated word plight meaning “pledge.” And therein lies the plight of words too similarly spelled—always in danger of being confused with each other.

When this word first appeared in Old English as plihtan, it was with the sense “to endanger or compromise (life, honor, etc.).” It later came to mean “to put something in danger by risking its forfeiture,” which is where “pledge” comes in. If one makes a pledge, one has the solemn duty to fulfill it, at the risk (or peril) of losing one’s honor. This may be an oath you make to a king, or a vow you make to your betrothed.
