use 英文词源

use

use: [13] The verb use comes via Old French user from Vulgar Latin *ūsāre. This was derived from ūsus, the past participle of Latin ūtī ‘use’ (source also of English utensil, utility [14], utilize [19], etc). Latin ūsus was also used as a noun, meaning ‘use, usage’, and this has given English the noun use [13] and the derivatives usage [13] (an Old French formation), usual, usurp, and usury. Abuse [14] and peruse [15] (etymologically ‘use up’) go back to the same Latin roots.
=> abuse, peruse, usual, usurp, usury, utensil, utilize
