英文詞源
- inevitable
- inevitable: [15] Latin ēvītāre meant ‘a(chǎn)void’. It was a compound verb formed from the prefix ex- ‘a(chǎn)way, from’ and vītāre ‘shun’, and actually produced an English verb evite ‘a(chǎn)void’, a scholarly 16th-century introduction which survived as an archaism into the 19th century. Its derived adjective was ēvītābilis ‘a(chǎn)voidable’, which with the negative prefix became inēvītābilis.
- inevitable (adj.)
- mid-15c., from Latin inevitabilis "unavoidable," from in- "not, opposite of" (see in- (1)) + evitabilis "avoidable," from evitare "to avoid," from ex- "out" (see ex-) + vitare "shun," originally "go out of the way."
