1580年代,“折磨”(及物动词),源自法语 agoniser(14世纪)或直接源自中世纪拉丁语 agonizare “劳动,奋斗,竞争”,也指“濒临死亡”,源自希腊语 agōnizesthai “在斗争中竞争,争夺胜利或奖品”(指身体搏斗、舞台比赛、诉讼),源自 agōnia “争夺胜利的斗争”,最初指“比赛中争夺胜利”(参见 agony)。及物动词的“遭受极度身体疼痛”的意义可追溯至1660年代; “强烈担忧”的心理意义可追溯至1853年。相关词汇: Agonized; agonizing。
borrowed from Middle French agoniser "to exercise, struggle, suffer, (in past participle agonisé) torment," borrowed from Medieval Latin agōnizāre "to struggle, suffer death pangs," going back to Late Latin, "to fight, wrestle," borrowed from Greek agōnízesthai "to contest, fight," verbal derivative of agṓn "assembly, contest" — more at agony
