英文詞源
- deed
- deed: [OE] Etymologically, a deed is ‘that which is done’. An ancient word, it can be traced back as far as a hypothetical *dhētis, a noun derived from *dhē-, *dhō- ‘place, put’, the Indo- European base from which do comes. This passed into Germanic as *d?diz, which produced German tat, Dutch daad, and Swedish d?ad as well as English deed. The word’s application to a legal document is a 14th-century development.
=> do - deed (n.)
- Old English d?d "a doing, act, action, transaction, event," from Proto-Germanic *d?dis (cognates: Old Saxon dad, Old Norse dae, Old Frisian dede, Middle Dutch daet, Dutch daad, Old High German tat, German Tat "deed," Gothic gadets "a putting, placing"), from PIE *dhetis (cognates: Lithuanian detis "load, burden," Greek thesis "a placing, setting"), from *dhe- "place, put" (see do). Sense of "written legal document" is early 14c. As a verb, 1806, American English Related: Deeded; deeding.
