14世纪中期(隐含于 toschatered 中),“散布,分散,扔来扔去”,及物动词,可能是中古英语 scateren 的变体(参见 scatter(v.)),也许反映了来自北欧的 sk- 和 sh- 的混淆。比较一下古荷兰语 schetteren 和低地德语 schateren。形成诸如 scatter-brained 的词汇在 shatter-brained 等方面有平行形式。
“破碎成碎片,如同一击”这个意思来自15世纪中期。不及物动词的意思是“飞散,变得散乱,被打成碎片”,始于1560年代。相关的: Shattered; shattering。卡莱尔(1841)使用 shatterment “破碎或被破碎的行为或状态”。Shatters “碎片”始于1630年代。
