15世纪中期,“伟大的,丰富的”,尤其是“任何目的都足够的”,来自古法语 ample “大的,宽的,广阔的,伟大的”(12世纪),源自拉丁语 amplus “大的,宽敞的; 丰富的,众多的; 壮丽的,杰出的”,与 ampla “手柄,握把; 机会”有关,源自原意为“可抓取的”的原始意大利语 *amlo-,来自一个意为“抓取”的 PIE 词根,也被认为是 amare “爱”(见 Amy)的来源。
Middle English, "abundant," borrowed from Anglo-French, "wide, extensive, great," going back to Latin amplus "more than adequate in size or extent, great, having wide scope (of the mind or other abstract entities)," of uncertain origin Note: M. de Vaan (Etymological Dictionary of Latin and the Other Italic Languages, Brill, 2008) sees amplus going back to *am-lo-, a derivative of a verb base *am- going back to Indo-European *h2emh3- "take hold of" (see amateur). Semantically this hypothesis works well, though it requires that the more likely form *am-a-lo- would have undergone early syncope. The word ampla, supposedly meaning "handle," would be corroboration; however, attestations for ampla are post-classical, excepting an apparent metaphorical employment in the sense "opportunity" by Cicero.
The first known use of ample was in the 15th century
