From the word’s history

From Middle English cathaloge, from Old French catalogue, from Late Latin catalogus, from Greek κατάλογος 'register', from καταλέγω 'to list'.

源自希臘文 katalogos「名冊」,來自 katalegō「列出清單」。

Wiktionary

Picture every item in a place written down in order, each with a line saying what it is — every book in the library, everything the shop sells. A catalogue leaves nothing out, and that completeness is what the other uses borrow.

可以想成:一個地方裡的每一樣東西都按順序寫下來,每一項後面附一行說明它是什麼——圖書館的每一本書、店裡賣的每一件商品。catalogue 的重點是「一個都不漏」,其他用法借的正是這份完整。
