英文词源
- manage
- manage: [16] Etymologically, manage means ‘handle’. It comes via Italian maneggiare ‘control a horse’ from Vulgar Latin *manidiare, a derivative of Latin manus ‘hand’. To begin with it was used in the context of ‘horsetraining’ in English, but eventually the French form manège took over in this sense. The more general sense ‘handle, control’ is of virtually equal antiquity in English, though.
=> manual - manage (v.)
- 1560s, probably from Italian maneggiare "to handle," especially "to control a horse," ultimately from Latin noun manus "hand" (see manual (adj.)). Influenced by French manège "horsemanship" (earliest English sense was of handling horses), which also was from Italian. Extended to other objects or business from 1570s. Slang sense of "get by" first recorded 1650s. Related: Managed; managing. Managed economy was used by 1933.
