中文詞源


來自古法語,而法語又來自通俗拉丁語,來自 a-(同 ad-,去,往)+ bat-(與 beat 同源,打、擊)+ -e(後綴,無實意)→ 字麵意思就是“將其打壓下去”,故引申為“減輕、減弱、減少”。同源詞:beat(打擊、跳動),batter(連續猛擊、持續打擊)。

英文詞源


abate (v.)
c. 1300, "put an end to;" early 14c., "to grow less, diminish in power or influence," from Old French abattre "beat down, cast down," from Vulgar Latin *abbatere, from Latin ad "to" (see ad-) + battuere "to beat" (see batter (v.)). Secondary sense of "to fell, slaughter" is in abatis and abattoir. Related: Abated; abating.
