漢：來源於盎格魯_撒尅遜語，意爲"way,apart,off"(frbid,forget,forgo),也有ïntensive,very much"(forlorn,forswear)含義。
英：prefix usually meaning "away, opposite, completely," from O.E. for-, indicating loss or destruction, or completion, also used as an intensive or pejorative element, which is related to O.N. for-, Du. ver-, O.H.G. fir-, Ger. ver-. Probably originally in Germanic with a sense of "forward, forth," but with complex sense developments in the various languages. Ultimately from the same root as fore (adv.).
