中古英语 kerven(最初的 -k- 来自于斯堪的纳维亚形式的影响),源自古英语 ceorfan(第三类强动词; 过去式 cearf,过去分词 corfen)“切割”,也指“砍倒,杀死; 切除”,源自西日耳曼语 *kerbanan(源头还包括古弗里西亚语 kerva,中古荷兰语和荷兰语 kerven,德语 kerben “切割,刻痕”),源自 PIE 词根 *gerbh- “刮擦”,因此 carve 是英语中希腊语 graphein “写”(最初是用钢笔在粘土板上“刮擦”)的同源词。
曾广泛使用,是“切割”的普通动词; 现在大多数意义已转移到 cut(v.)上,自16世纪以来, carve 已被限制在专业意义上,例如“将(实体材料)切割成物体或设计的形状”(古英语晚期); “将(肉等)切成块或片”(13世纪初); “通过切割生产”(13世纪中期); “通过雕刻装饰”(14世纪晚期)。相关词汇: Carved; carving。原始的强变位已被放弃,但古老的过去分词形容词 carven 在诗歌中仍然存在。
Middle English kerven, from Old English ceorfan; akin to Old High German kerban to notch, Greek graphein to scratch, write
