support[support 词源字典]

support: [14] Latin supportāre meant ‘carry, convey, bring’ (it was a compound verb formed from the prefix sub- ‘up, towards’ and portāre ‘carry’, source of English portable, porter, etc). The sense ‘endure’ (represented in English mainly by the derivative insupportable [16]) evolved in post-classical Latin. ‘Bear the weight of’ is not recorded in English until the 16th century.
