matter
語源
From Middle English matere, mater, from Anglo-Norman matere, materie, from Old French materie, matiere, from Latin materia (“wood”), from mater (“mother”), in which case cognate with Old Armenian մայր (mayr, “cedar”) and մայրի (mayri, “forest”). More recently, referred to Proto-Indo-European *dem-. Doublet of Madeira and mother.
Displaced Middle English andweorc, andwork (“material, matter”), from 古期英語 andweorc (“matter, substance, material”)), 古期英語 intinga (“matter, affair, business”).
