英文詞源
- sanctity
- sanctity: [14] Latin sanctus ‘holy’ (source of English saint) originated as the past participle of sancīre ‘consecrate’, a verb derived from the same base that produced sacer ‘sacred’ (source of English sacred, sacrifice, etc). Amongst its derivatives to have reached English are sanctify [14], sanctimonious [17], sanctity, sanctuary [14], and sanctum [16]. And its stem sanctformed the basis of the Latin noun sanctiō ‘ordaining of something as sacred or inviolable’, hence more broadly a ‘decree, sanction’, from which English gets sanction [16].
=> sacred, saint - sanctity (n.)
- late 14c., from Old French sanctete (Modern French sainteté), from Latin sanctitatem (nominative sanctitas) "holiness, sacredness," from sanctus "holy" (see saint (n.)).
