源于古英语 gnagan,意为“啃,一点一点地咬”(过去式 *gnog,过去分词 gnagan),来自原始日耳曼语 *gh(e)n-,“去啃”的意思(源自古撒克逊语 gnagan,古挪威语、瑞典语 gnaga,中古荷兰语、荷兰语 knagen,古高德语 gnagan,德语 nagen“去啃”),可能是模仿啃咬的声音。比喻意义“像被持续咬一样地逐渐消磨”出现于13世纪初期。相关词汇: Gnawed; gnawing。
Middle English gnawen, from Old English gnagan; akin to Old High German gnagan to gnaw
The first known use of gnaw was before the 12th century
