14世纪后期,"迅速低头; 通过点头示意,点头问候或打招呼",14世纪后期, nodden,一个起源未知的词,可能是一种古英语单词,但未记录下来,或者可能来自与古高地日耳曼语有关的低地德语词汇 hnoton "震动",源自原始日耳曼语 *hnudan (牛津英语词典认为这是“有疑问的”)。明显与拉丁语 nuere "点头" 无关。相关: Nodded; nodding 。
"向前低头,短暂而不自觉的动作",如昏昏欲睡时,最早可追溯到1560年代。比喻意义上的"犯错误,短暂的不注意",可追溯到1670年代,回应了贺拉斯的 dormitat Homerus 。在花卉等方面,意为"下垂或向下弯曲",大约在1600年左右。"在服用药物时无意识地入睡和醒来"的意义可追溯到1968年(作为名词的这个意义可追溯到1942年)。
nodding acquaintance (1821年)是你认识得足够好只需点头认出的人。 Land of Nod "睡眠状态"(1731年)是基于《创世纪》第四章第16节中伊甸园以东的一个圣经地名的双关语。
