kith 朋友，鄰居，熟人
來自can的古英語過去分詞，引申詞義知道的人，熟人，鄰居，現(xiàn)僅用于習(xí)語kith and kin,親屬，親戚。
英文詞源
- kith (n.)
- Old English cyee "kinship, relationship; kinsfolk, fellow-countrymen, neighbors; native country, home; knowledge, acquaintance, familiarity," from cue "known," past participle of cunnan "to know" (see can (v.)). Cognate with Old High German chundida. The alliterative phrase kith and kin (late 14c.) originally meant "country and kinsmen" and is almost the word's only survival.
