"blot out, cause to disappear, remove all traces of, wipe out," c. 1600, 源自拉丁语 obliteratus,是 obliterare 的过去分词,意为“使消失,涂抹(文字),擦除,抹去”,比喻意义为“使被遗忘,抹去记忆”,由 ob “反对”(见 ob-)和 littera(也可写作 litera)“字母,文字”(见 letter(n.))组成。这个动词是从短语 literas scribere 中抽象出来的,意为“在字母上写字,划掉字母”。相关词汇: Obliterated; obliterating。

borrowed from Latin oblīterātus, oblitterātus, past participle of oblīterāre, oblitterāre "to cause to be forgotten or fall into disuse, make disappear," from ob- "against, facing" + -līterāre, litterāre, verbal derivative of lītera, littera letter >entry 1 — more at ob- Note: The original meaning of oblīterāre was apparently "to wipe out letters, words, etc.," but this sense is not clearly attested in classical Latin. Attested senses appear to have been influenced by oblītus, past participle of oblīvīscī "to forget, put out of mind" (cf. oblivion).
The first known use of obliterate was in 1548
