英文詞源
- tolerate
- tolerate: [16] To tolerate something is etymologically to ‘bear’ it. The word comes from the past participle of Latin tolerāre ‘bear, tolerate’. This in turn was formed from a base *tol- ‘lift, carry’, which also underlies English extol [15].
=> extol - tolerate (v.)
- 1530s, of authorities, "to allow without interference," from Latin toleratus, past participle of tolerare (see toleration). Related: Tolerated; tolerating.
