英语词汇supposed的起源、历史背景-英语词源词典

词汇	supposed
词源	supposed adj. "believed or thought to exist," 1580s, past-participle adjective from suppose (v.); often with the -e- pronounced, to distinguish it from the passive past tense supposed, now common in the sense of "to have a duty or obligation" (1859). Entries linking to supposed suppose v. early 14c., "to assume as the basis of argument," from Old French suposer "to assume" (13c.), probably a replacement (influenced by Old French poser "put, place") of *suppondre, from Latin supponere "put or place under; to subordinate, make subject," from assimilated form of sub "under" (see sub-) + ponere "put, place" (past participle positus; see position (n.)). Meaning "to admit as possible, to believe to be true" is from 1520s. supposedly adv. "as may be supposed, presumably," 1610s, from supposed + -ly (2). updated on December 30, 2013
