courage普通用词。指面对危险或困难时无所畏惧的精神和敢于奋斗的进取心。
nerve侧重指面临危险或在冒险的情况下具有冷静、清醒的头脑和坚定无畏的勇气。
backbone指性格倔强,意志坚定,有骨气,有顽强的决心去做某事。

1540年代,“大胆,挑战,吹嘘”,源自法语 braverie,来自 braver “勇敢”(参见 brave(形容词)),或者来自同源的意大利语 braveria,来自 bravare。
No Man is an Atheist, however he pretend it and serve the Company with his Braveries. [Donne, 1631]
没有人是无神论者,无论他如何假装并用他的勇气服务于公司。[唐恩,1631]
原始的贬义意义已经过时; 作为一个良好的品质,自1580年代以来得到证实,但不总是可能区分这些意义。 “华丽的衣服,华丽的外表”的意思来自1560年代,保持了旧的炫耀假装的概念。
borrowed from Middle French braverie "bravado, challenge, audacity," from braver "to challenge, flout, brave >entry 2" + -erie -ery
