14世纪初,用于形容人的皮肤或肤色,“呈白色外观,没有血色,苍白”,源自古法语 paile “苍白,浅色”(12世纪,现代法语 pâle),源自拉丁语 pallidus “苍白,面色苍白,无色”,源自 pallere “变得苍白,变得无色”,源自 PIE 词根 *pel-(1)“苍白”。Pallid 是一个双形式词。
从14世纪中期开始用于颜色,“缺乏色彩强度,接近白色”; 从14世纪后期开始用于非人类物体或物质(酒类等)。比喻用法也始于14世纪后期。相关词汇: Palely; palish; paleness。美国英语中, Paleface 被认为是一个典型的北美印第安人用来指代“欧洲人”的词汇,最早可追溯到1822年。
Adjective Middle English pale, paal, palle, borrowed from Anglo-French pale, palle, paille (also continental Old French), borrowed (with loss of unstressed -id-) from Latin pallidus "pale, colorless," formed with the adjective suffix -idus from the same base as pallēre "to be pale or bloodless, have a pale color," pallor "paleness of complexion, loss of color" — more at fallow >entry 1 Verb (1) Middle English palen, borrowed from Anglo-French palir (continental Old French palir, paloïr), going back (with conjugation change) to Latin pallēscere "to grow pale, turn a pale color," inchoative derivative of pallēre "to be pale or bloodless, have a pale color" — more at fallow >entry 1 Noun and Verb (2) Middle English, from Anglo-French pel, pal stake, from Latin palus — more at pole
The first known use of pale was in the 12th century
