约于1200年,“温和的,温柔的,友善的,有礼貌的”,源自古法语 debonaire,来自 de bon' aire “出身良好”,最初用于鹰,因此,“纯种”(与法语 demalaire 相反); 这里的 aire 可能来自拉丁语 ager “地方,领域”(来自 PIE 词根 *agro- “领域”),意为“起源地”。在中古英语中用于表示“温顺,有礼貌”,后来过时了,并在1680年代以改变的意义“愉快轻松和和蔼可亲”重新出现。OED 说它“现在是一个文学上的古语,常常被拼写成现代法语 débonnaire。” 相关: Debonairly。
Middle English debonere, from Anglo-French deboneire, from de bon aire of good family or nature
The first known use of debonair was in the 13th century
