henchman词源中文解释
14世纪中期， hengestman，后来是 henshman（15世纪中期），“高级仆人（通常出身高贵），侍奉国王、贵族等”，最初是“马夫”，可能来自 man（名词）+古英语 hengest “马、种马、阉马”，源自原始日耳曼语 *hangistas（源头还有古弗里斯兰语 hengst，荷兰语 hengest，德语 Hengst “种马”），可能字面意思是“跳跃最好的”，源自 PIE *kenku-（源头还有希腊语 kekiein “涌出”； 立陶宛语 šokti “跳跃、跳舞”； 布列塔尼语 kazek “母马”，字面意思是“属于种马的东西”）。
可能是模仿古诺尔斯语复合词 hesta-maðr “马童、马夫”。这个词在17世纪英格兰已经过时，但在苏格兰保留为“苏格兰高地酋长的私人随从”的意思，这个意思从1810年起被斯科特在文学英语中重新使用。 “顺从或不择手段的追随者”的意义首次记录于1839年，可能是对斯科特使用该词的一种误解。
This officer is a sort of secretary, and is to be ready, upon all occasions, to venture his life in defence of his master; and at drinking-bouts he stands behind his seat, at his haunch, from whence his title is derived, and watches the conversation, to see if any one offends his patron. [Scott, notes to "Lady of the Lake," 1820; his proposed etymology is not now considered correct]
这个官员是一种秘书，必须随时准备为主人冒生命危险； 在饮酒时，他站在主人的座位后面，靠在他的臀部，从那里得到他的头衔，并观察谈话，看是否有人冒犯了他的主人。[斯科特，“湖夫人”注，1820年； 他提出的词源现在被认为是不正确的]
