古英语 weax 指“蜜蜂制造的物质”,源自原始日耳曼语 *wahsam(也指古撒克逊语、古高地德语 wahs 、古挪威语 vax 、荷兰语 was 、德语 Wachs),源自原始印欧语根 *wokso- “蜡”(也指古教会斯拉夫语 voskŭ 、立陶宛语 vaškas 、波兰语 wosk 、俄语 vosk “蜡”(但这些可能来自日耳曼语))。
18世纪开始用于指其他类似物质。俚语“唱片”指的是1932年美国英语(直到20世纪40年代初,大多数原始唱片都是通过在蜡盘上刻针刻录,然后镀金制成母版)。Waxworks “展示蜡像,代表着著名或臭名昭著的人物”,首次记录于1796年。

Noun (1) Middle English, from Old English weax; akin to Old High German wahs wax, Lithuanian vaškas Verb (2) Middle English waxen "to grow, increase in size or quantity," going back to Old English weaxan (Class VII strong verb, probably originally Class VI), going back to Germanic *wahsan- (whence also Old Frisian waxa, wexa "to grow, increase," Old Saxon wahsan "to grow, prosper," Middle Dutch wassen "to grow," Old High German wahsan, Old Icelandic vaxa, Gothic wahsjan), going back to an o-grade derivative of the Indo-European verbal base *h2u̯eks- "grow, increase," whence with e-grade Greek aéxein "to cause to grow, strengthen," aéxesthai "to increase, grow"; with zero grade *h2uks- Greek aúxein, auxánein "to raise, cultivate, grow," aúxesthai "grow, become larger," Tocharian B auks- "sprout, grow up," Sanskrit úkṣant- "growing," Avestan uxšiieitī "(it) grows" Note: Germanic *wahsan- was a Class VI strong verb, though the weak infinitive wahsjan in Gothic is evidence of an original causative formation *h2u̯oks-éi̯e-. In Old English the verb has shifted to Class VII, excepting the Northumbrian past tense forms awōx, wōxon. In later Middle English waxen became a weak verb, though the strong participle waxen persisted into early Modern English, being the more common form (as against waxed) in the Authorized Version of the Bible (1611). — As has long been noted, Indo-European *h2u̯eks- appears to be a suffixed form of the root *h2eu̯g- "increase," with the vowel in a different position—so-called "floating ablaut" (German Schwebeablaut) (see eke >entry 2). Noun (2) Middle English, noun derivative of waxen "to grow, wax >entry 3" Noun (3) perhaps from wax >entry 3
The first known use of wax was before the 12th century
