中古英语 sēchen “寻找或追求; 努力达到”,源自古英语 secan 、seocan “寻找; 追逐; 渴望; 期待”,受到古挪威语 soekja 的影响,两者均源自原始日耳曼语 *sokjanan(也是古撒克逊语 sokian 、古弗里斯兰语 seka 、中古荷兰语 soekan 、古高地德语 suohhan 、德语 suchen 、哥特语 sokjan 的来源)。
这被重建为源自 PIE *sag-yo-,源自词根 *sag- “追踪,寻找”(也是拉丁语 sagire “迅速或敏锐地感知”, sagus “预示,预测”,古爱尔兰语 saigim “寻找”)。如果没有受到挪威语的影响,盎格鲁-撒克逊语的自然现代形式是 beseech。相关词汇: Sought; seekin g。
到了古英语晚期,表示“提问”。Seek-sorrow(1580年代)是指“自我折磨者,刻意使自己烦恼的人”的古老术语。Seek-no-further(或 farther)作为一种食用苹果的名称可追溯到1660年代。
