reverend mothern. (对女修道院院长的称呼)院长嬷嬷
most reverend最尊敬的大主教大人(大主教的尊称)
15世纪初,也称为 reverent,"由于年龄、品质等而值得深深尊敬的,值得崇敬的",源自古法语 reverent, reverend,直接源自拉丁语 reverendus,意为"(应该)受到尊敬的",是 revereri 的动名词形式,意为"敬畏,尊敬,崇敬,害怕,畏惧",源自 re-,这里可能是一个强调前缀(参见 re-),加上 vereri,意为"敬畏,害怕,尊敬"(源自 PIE 词根 *wer-(3)"感知,小心")。
作为对牧师的称呼,这一用法可追溯到15世纪末; 更早的用法是 reverent(在这个意义上是14世纪末)。从17世纪40年代开始,它被加在名字前面。缩写形式 Rev. 可追溯到1721年,更早的是 Revd.(1690年代)。Very Reverend 用于教长, Right Reverend 用于主教, Most Reverend 用于大主教。
