1530年代,“向风侧”,来自 a-(1)“在”+中古英语 loof “向风侧”,这可能来自荷兰语 loef(中古荷兰语 lof)“船的风侧”(见 luff(n.))。
最初用于航海命令,以保持船头朝向风向,从而远离背风岸或其他方向; 因此,“在一定距离内但在视野范围内”(1530年代),并且在动词 stand, keep 等的引申义中,“独立的,孤立的,没有社区精神”。自约1600年起用作形容词。相关: Aloofly; aloofness。
Adjective derivative of aloof >entry 2 Adverb from earlier aloof "(on a ship) to windward, toward the direction from which the wind is blowing (hence avoiding the lee shore)," from a- >entry 1 + loof, variant of luff >entry 1
The first known use of aloof was in 1523
