词源 1
[编辑]源自中古英語 staunch、staunche (“状态良好的,不需维修的;稳固的,坚实的;防水的;(指人或伤口)不再流血的;肯定的;完好的;坚定地,稳健地”) [以及其他形式],[1]源自盎格魯-諾曼語 estaunche、古法語 estanche (“稳固的,防水的”)(现代法語 étanche (“气密的;防水的”)),estanc (“池塘”)的变体,[2]源自estanchier (“堵塞(水流,血流等);使...防水;解(渴)”)(现代法語 étancher),可能源自下列词之一:
- 源自通俗拉丁語 *stagnicāre,源自拉丁語 stāgnum (“一滩死水;池塘;沼泽”),可能源自原始印歐語 *steh₂g- (“滴;渗”)。[3]
- 源自通俗拉丁語 *stānticāre,源自*stānticus (“疲劳的”),源自拉丁語 stāns, stāntis (“站立的;遗留的,停留的”)。stāns是stō (“站立;剩余,停留”)的现在主动分词,最终源自原始印歐語 *steh₂- (“站”)。
