perhaps 英文词源

perhaps

perhaps: [16] The phrase by hap or by haps ‘by chance’ originated in the 14th century (hap ‘chance’, a borrowing from Old Norse, now survives in the derived happen). In the 16th century it was transformed into perhaps on the model of perchance [14] and the now obsolete percase [14], both borrowings from Anglo- Norman containing per ‘by’.
=> happen, happy

perhaps (adv.)

1520s, formed from Middle English per, par "by, through" (see per-) + plural of hap "chance" (see happen), on model of peradventure, perchance, etc. which now have been superseded by this word. Perhappons "possibly, by chance" is recorded from late 15c.

perhaps 英文释义

1. by chance;

"perhaps she will call tomorrow"

"we may possibly run into them at the concert"

"it may peradventure be thought that there never was such a time"
