约于1200年,最初为 destruien,后来为 destroien,意为“推翻,摧毁,毁灭”,源自古法语 destruire(12世纪,现代法语 détruire),来自通俗拉丁语 *destrugere(意为“破坏,摧毁”,是意大利语 distruggere 的源头),经过改编(受 destructus 影响),源自拉丁语 destruere(意为“拆除,拆毁”,字面意思为“反建造”),由 de(表示“反,向下”,参见 de-)和 struere(意为“堆积,建造”,源自 PIE *streu-, 是词根 *stere- “散布” 的扩展形式)组成。
从约1300年开始,意为“杀死,屠杀”,也指“拆除,摧毁”(已建造的东西); 还指“使归于无有,结束”。相关词汇: Destroyed; destroying。
