词源学英语翻译

英语folk etymology翻译过来中文的意思就是:民间词源。

cater (v.)c.1600, from M.E. catour (n.) "buyer of provisions" (c.1400), aphetic for Anglo-Fr. achatour (O.N.Fr. acatour, O.Fr. achatour, 13c., Fr. acheteur), from O.Fr. achater "to buy," originally "to buy provisions," perhaps from V.L. *accaptare, from L. ad- "to" + captare "to take, hold," frequentative of capere "to take" (see capable). Or else from V.L. *accapitare "to add to one's capital," from verbal stem of L. caput (gen. capitis). See capital. Related: Catered; catering. cater(动词) 16世纪 来自中古英语 catour(名词)14世纪“粮食的购买者”，是脱落字首的安格鲁法语 achatour (古挪威法语acatour,古法语achatour,13世纪法语acheteur), 来自古法语achater "去购买"，原义“去购买粮食”，也许来自异体accaptare,拉丁语。ad-"向，去"+captare"拿，拥有"，是capere的反复动词 “去拿”。或者来自异体accapitare"增加某个人的资产"，来自拉丁动词词根caput(所有格capitis). 见capital. 相关：catered; catering(提供饮食的)按我个人大白话式的理解就是：意思是这样进化的 去拿/去拥有->购买->购买粮食->提供饮食,迎合某人词形上的重大变化就是词首的省略 由 achater->cater
