约于1300年, despit(名词)“蔑视的挑战,挑衅行为; 旨在侮辱或羞辱某人的行为”; 14世纪中期,“轻蔑,蔑视”,源自古法语 despit(12世纪,现代法语 dépit),源自拉丁语 despectus “俯视,轻蔑,蔑视”,源自 despicere 的过去分词“俯视,轻蔑”,源自 de “向下”(见 de-) + spicere/specere “看”(源自 PIE 词根 *spek- “观察”)。
介词意义上的“尽管”(15世纪初)是 in despite of “蔑视,挑衅”(约于1300年)的缩写,是盎格鲁-法语 en despit de “蔑视”的借译。在16世纪的拼写改革中,它几乎变成了 despight。
