英语词源
- recluse

recluse: [13] A recluse is etymologically a person who is ‘shut up’. The word was borrowed from reclus, the past participle of Old French reclure ‘shut up’. This was descended from Latin reclūdere, a compound verb formed from the prefix re- ‘again’ and claudere ‘shut’ (source of English close) which originally, paradoxically, meant ‘open’ – the notion being ‘reversing the process of closing’. ‘Shut up’ emerged in the post-classical period.
=> close - recluse (n.)
- c. 1200, "person shut up from the world for purposes of religious meditation," from Old French reclus (fem. recluse) "hermit, recluse," also "confinement, prison; convent, monastery," noun use of reclus (adj.) "shut up," from Late Latin reclusus, past participle of recludere "to shut up, enclose" (but in classical Latin "to throw open"), from Latin re-, intensive prefix, + claudere "to shut" (see close (v.)).
