英文詞源
- lather
- lather: [OE] Indo-European *lou- denoted ‘wash’ (from it English gets laundry, lavatory, lotion, etc). Addition of the suffix *-tro- produced *loutrom, which passed via Germanic *lauthram into English as lather. In Old English this is only recorded as meaning ‘washing soda’, and the modern sense ‘soap bubbles’ does not emerge until the late 16th century.
=> ablution, laundry, lavatory, lotion - lather (n.)
- Old English lautr "foam, washing soda," from Proto-Germanic *lauthran (cognates: Old Norse lauer "washing soap, foam"), from PIE *loutro- (cognates: Gaulish lautron, Old Irish loathar "bathing tub," Greek louein "to bathe," Latin lavere "to wash"), which is from root *leu(e)- "to wash" + instrumentative suffix *-tro-. The modern noun might be a 16c. redevelopment from the verb. Meaning "violent perspiration" (especially of horses) is from 1650s. Meaning "state of agitation" (such as induces sweating) is from 1839.
- lather (v.)
- Old English latran, from Proto-Germanic *lauthrjan (source also of Old Norse leyera "to clean, wash;" see lather (n.)). Related: Lathered; lathering.
