英文词源


erupt
erupt: [17] Etymologically, erupt means simply ‘break out’. It comes from the past participle of Latin ērumpere, a compound verb formed from the prefix ex- ‘out, from’ and rumpere ‘break’ (source of English rout, route, routine, and rupture, and related to bereave, rob, and robe). English actually acquired the derived noun eruption [15] before the verb.
=> bereave, corrupt, disrupt, rob, rout, route, routine, rupture
erupt (v.)
1650s, of diseases, etc., from Latin eruptus, past participle of erumpere "to break out, burst," from assimilated form of ex- "out" (see ex-) + rumpere "to break, rupture" (see rupture (n.)). Of volcanoes, from 1770 (the Latin word was used in reference to Mount Etna). Related: Erupted; erupting.
