英语词源
- voluptuous

voluptuous: [14] Voluptuous goes back ultimately to the Indo-European base *wol-, *wel- ‘be pleasing’, which also produced English volunteer and will. From it was descended the Latin adverb volup ‘agreeably’, from which were derived in turn the noun voluptās ‘pleasure’ and the adjective voluptuōsus ‘giving pleasure’. In its transmission via Old French voluptueux to English, it acquired additional connotations of ‘sensual pleasure’.
=> volition - voluptuous (adj.)
- late 14c., "of or pertaining to desires or appetites," from Old French voluptueux, volumptueuse and directly from Latin voluptuosus "full of pleasure, delightful," from voluptas "pleasure, delight, enjoyment, satisfaction," from volup "pleasurably," perhaps ultimately related to velle "to wish," from PIE *wel- (2) "to wish, will" (see will (v.)). Meaning "addicted to sensual pleasure" is recorded from mid-15c. Sense of "suggestive of sensual pleasure" is attested from 1816 (Byron); especially in reference to feminine beauty from 1839. Related: Voluptuously; voluptuousness.
