十四世纪中期,“奉承”,来自法语 blandiss-, blandir 的现在分词词干,“奉承,爱抚”,源自拉丁语 blandiri,“奉承,安抚,爱抚,哄骗”,来自 blandus “说话流畅的,奉承的,诱人的”,可能源于 PIE 語根 *mel- (1)“柔软的”。《牛津英语词典》(OED)报道,其在十七、十八世纪时较为罕见,约翰逊说他只从弥尔顿的作品中了解过这个词。相关词: Blandished; blandishing。
Middle English blaundyshen, blaundissen "to flatter, be enticing, (of the sea) become calm," borrowed from Anglo-French blandiss-, long stem of blandir "to flatter, cajole," going back to Latin blandīrī "to behave or speak in an ingratiating way, flatter," derivative of blandus "influencing others by flattery, ingratiating" — more at bland
The first known use of blandish was in the 14th century
