wanton词源

wanton

wanton: [13] Someone who is wanton is etymologically ‘lacking in proper upbringing or discipline’. The word was formed from the Middle English prefix wan- ‘un-’ (a reduced form of the adjective wane ‘lacking’, which is related to the modern English verb wane) and towen, a descendant of Old English togen, the past participle of tēon ‘pull’, hence ‘bring up, train, discipline’.=> wane

wanton (adj.)

early 14c., wan-towen, \"resistant to control; willful,\" from Middle English privative word-forming element wan- \"wanting, lacking, deficient,\" from Old English wan-, which was used interchangeably with un- (1), and is cognate with German wahn- (as in wahnglaube \"superstition,\" wahnschaffen \"misshapen,\" wahnwitzig \"mad, foolish\"), Dutch wan- (as in wanbestuur \"misgovernment,\" wanluid \"discordant sound\"), Swedish and Danish van-, from Proto-Germanic *wano- (see wane). Common in Old and Middle English, still present in 18c. glossaries of Scottish and Northern English; this word is its sole modern survival.Second element is Middle English towen, from Old English togen, past participle of teon \"to train, discipline;\" literally \"to pull, draw,\" from Proto-Germanic *teuhan (cognates: Old High German ziohan \"to pull,\" from Proto-Germanic *teuhan; see tug (v.)). The basic notion perhaps is \"ill-bred, poorly brought up;\" compare German ungezogen \"ill-bred, rude, naughty,\" literally \"unpulled.\" Especially of sexual indulgence from late 14c. Meaning \"inhumane, merciless\" is from 1510s. Related: Wantonly; wantonness.

As Flies to wanton Boyes are we to th\' Gods, They kill vs for their sport. [Shakespeare, \"Lear,\" 1605]

wanton (n.)

\"one who is ill-behaved,\" mid-15c., especially \"lascivious, lewd person\" (1520s), from wanton (adj.).

wanton (v.)

\"to revel, frolic unrestrainedly,\" 1580s, from wanton (adj.). Related: Wantoned; wantoning.
