约于1300年, abreggen “使变短,缩短,压缩”,源自古法语 abregier, abrigier “删节,减少,缩短”(12世纪,现代法语 abréger),源自晚期拉丁语 abbreviare “使短”,源自拉丁语 ad “到”(参见 ad-) + breviare “缩短”,源自 brevis “短,低,小,浅”(源自 PIE 词根 *mregh-u- “短”)。
Abbreviate 是同源词,直接源自拉丁语。将拉丁语 -vi- 转变为法语 -dg- 的语音演变与 assuage(源自 assuavidare)和 deluge(源自 diluvium)相似。关于写作,“通过省略缩短”,晚于14世纪。相关词汇: Abridged; abridging。
