英文词源


ready
ready: [12] Ready is a derivative of Old English rǣde ‘ready’, which went back to a prehistoric Germanic *raithjō ‘arranged’, hence ‘prepared’. This also produced German bereit ‘ready’, Dutch gereed ‘ready’, and Swedish reda ‘ready’, and it lies behind the second syllable of curry ‘groom a horse’.
ready (adj.)
Old English ræde, geræde "prepared, ready," of a horse, "ready for riding," from Proto-Germanic *garaidijaz "arranged" (cognates: Old Frisian rede "ready," Middle Dutch gereit, Old High German reiti, Middle High German bereite, German bereit, Old Norse greiðr "ready, plain," Gothic garaiþs "ordered, arranged"), from PIE root *reidh- "to ride" (see ride (v.)). Lengthened in Middle English by change of ending. Ready-made first attested early 15c.; ready-to-wear is from 1890.
ready (v.)
early 13c., "to administer;" c. 1300, "to take aim;" mid-14c., "to prepare, make ready," from ready (adj.). Related: Readied; readying.
