13世纪中叶, defenden,“保护免受攻击,防御伤害”,源自古法语 defendre(12世纪)“保护,抵抗”,直接源自拉丁语 defendere “避开,保护,守卫,为...辩护”,由 de “从...离开”(见 de-)和 -fendere “打击,打,推”,仅在复合词中出现(如 offendere “撞击; 遭遇; ” infensus “攻击,敌对”),源自 PIE 词根 *gwhend- “打击,杀死”(也是赫梯语 kue(n)zi “杀死”,梵语 ghnanti “杀死; 希腊语 theino “杀死; 亚美尼亚语 jnem “打击”; 立陶宛语 ginti “保护,防御”; 古爱尔兰语 gonaid “伤口,杀死”; 威尔士语 gwan “刺,打”; 古布列塔尼语 goanaff “惩罚,刺痛”的来源)。
它自14世纪中叶开始被证明为“为...辩护而战”(某人或某物)。从14世纪中叶开始,它的意思是“用言辞辩护,支持,证明,维护”。在中古英语中,它也可以意味着“禁止,禁止; 限制,防止”。在梅尔西亚赞美诗中,拉丁语 defendet 被古英语 gescildeð 所解释。相关: Defended; defending。

Middle English defenden, borrowed from Anglo-French & Latin; Anglo-French defendre, defender, going back to Latin dēfendere "to ward off, fend off, repel danger from, protect," from dē- de- + -fendere, presumably, "to strike, hit" (unattested without prefixes), going back to Indo-European *gwhen-dh-, extended determinate form of *gwhen-, *gwhn- "strike, kill," whence Hittite kuenzi "(s/he) kills," kunanzi "(they) kill," Sanskrit hánti "(s/he) strikes, kills," ghnánti "(they) strike, kill," Greek theínein "to strike," épethnon "(I) killed," Old Irish gonaid "(s/he) pierces, wounds, kills," Welsh gwan- "stab, pierce," Lithuanian genù, giñti "to drive (cattle, etc.)," Old Church Slavic ženǫ, gŭnati "to drive, chase out, expel"; also, from nominal derivative *gwhon-, Greek phónos "bloodshed, murder," and from *gwhń̥-tih2, Germanic *gunþī, *gunþjō, whence Old English gūþ "battle, combat," Old Saxon gūđea, Old High German gund-, Old Icelandic gunnr, guðr
