英語の語源


there
there: [OE] There was formed in prehistoric Germanic from the demonstrative base *tha- (which also underlies English that and then) and the suffix -r used in making adverbs of place (it occurs also in English here and where). Its Germanic relatives include German da, Dutch daar, and Swedish and Danish der.
=> here, the, then, where
there (adv., conj.)
Old English t?r "in or at that place, so far as, provided that, in that respect," from Proto-Germanic *th?r (cognates: Old Saxon thar, Old Frisian ther, Middle Low German dar, Middle Dutch daer, Dutch daar, Old High German dar, German da, Gothic tar, Old Norse tar), from PIE *tar- "there" (cognates: Sanskrit tar-hi "then"), from root *to- (see the) + adverbial suffix -r.

Interjectional use is recorded from 1530s, used variously to emphasize certainty, encouragement, or consolation. To have been there "had previous experience of some activity" is recorded from 1877.
