Did You Know?
If you’ve ever trembled with fright, you know something of both the sensation and etymology of trepidation. The word comes from the Latin verb trepidare, which means “to tremble.” Early meanings of trepidation, such as “tremulous motion” or “tremor,” reflect that origin; those are followed by the word’s sense of “apprehension.”
如果您曾经因惊恐而颤抖，那么您就会对恐惧的感觉和词源有所了解。 这个词来自拉丁语动词 trepidare，意思是“to tremble「颤抖」”。 trepidation 的早期含义，例如“tremulous motion「颤抖的动作」”或“tremor「颤抖」”，反映出这个起源； 紧随其后是这个“apprehension「恐惧」”的意思。
