abash词源中文解释

“perplex or embarrass by suddenly exciting the conscience, discomfit, make ashamed,” 14世纪晚期, abaishen,早期意为“失去镇静,心烦意乱”(14世纪早期),源自古法语 esbaiss-, esbaer 的现在时词干,意为“失去镇静,惊慌,震惊”。

Originally, to put to confusion from any strong emotion, whether of fear, of wonder, shame, or admiration, but restricted in modern times to effect of shame. [Hensleigh Wedgwood, "A Dictionary of English Etymology," 1859]
最初,指由于任何强烈的情感(无论是恐惧、惊奇、羞耻还是钦佩)而导致的困惑,但在现代时期仅指羞耻的影响。[亨斯利·韦奇伍德,《英语词源词典》,1859年]

第一个元素是 es “出”(来自拉丁语 ex; 参见 ex-)。第二个元素可能是 ba(y)er “张开,张口”(如果概念是“惊讶地张开嘴巴”),可能最终是模仿张开嘴唇的声音。中古英语 Compendium 还将古法语 abaissier “鞠躬,减少,低头”(abase 的来源)进行了比较。相关词汇: Abashed; abashing。Bashful 是16世纪的派生词。
