英文词源
- permit
- permit: [15] Permit is one of a large family of English words (including also admit, commit, etc) which go back to Latin mittere ‘let go, send’. Combination with the prefix per- ‘through’ produced permittere ‘let go, give up’, hence ‘allow’. Amongst derivatives to have reached English are permissible [15], permission [15], and permissive [17].
=> admit, commit, mission, permission, submit, transmit - permit (v.)
- late 15c., from Middle French permetre and directly from Latin permittere "let pass, let go, let loose; give up, hand over; let, allow, grant, permit," from per- "through" (see per) + mittere "let go, send" (see mission). Related: Permitted; permitting.
- permit (n.)
- "written statement of permission or license," 1714, from permit (v.).
