古英语 stille “静止的,稳定的,固定的,静止的”,源自原始日耳曼语 *stilli-(也包括古弗里西亚语,中低地德语,中古荷兰语 stille,荷兰语 stil,古高地德语 stilli,德语 still),源自 PIE *stel-ni-,是“放置,站立,整理”的词根 *stel- 的带后缀形式,其派生词指代一个站立的物体或地方。意思“安静的,平静的,温和的,寂静的”在后期古英语中出现。在 stillborn 等中委婉地表示“死亡”。Still small voice 来自 KJV:
他说:“你出去站在山上,在耶和华面前。看哪,耶和华从前面经过,在他面前有大风暴裂山岩,崩裂磐石,但耶和华不在风暴中。风暴过去,地震发生,火灾过后,有耶和华的低声细语。”[列王纪上 xix.11-13]
从1722年开始用作连词。
