词源

A group of girls in Sri Lanka.
斯里兰卡的一群女孩。

源自中古英语 gerle、girle、gyrle (“任何性别的年轻人”)，之后的来源不详。可能是源自古英语 *gyrle、*gyrele，源自原始日耳曼语 *gurwilaz，原始日耳曼语 *gurwijaz的一个指小词形式（比较北弗里斯兰语 gör (“女孩”)、低地德语 Gör、Göre (“任何性别的孩子”)、德语 Göre (“孩童”)、方言挪威语 gorre、方言瑞典语 garre、gurre (“小孩”)），源自原始印欧语 *ǵʰer- (“短的”)[1]（对比古爱尔兰语 gair (“短的”)、古希腊语 χρεώ (khreṓ, “需要”)、χρήσθαι (khrḗsthai, “需要”)、梵语 ह्रस्व (hrasva, “短的，小的”)）。

用法说明

编辑
  • (任何年龄的女性)： 成年人称呼成熟女性为“girl”可能会根据语境和听话人的观念而被认为是褒义或者贬义。某些情况下，这种词义被用作处女的委婉用词，来将处女和已经有过性交经历的女性区分开。即使“girl”在大部分时候不会刻意用来表达贬义，但还是有一种高人一等的语气，特别是称呼比自己年龄大的人时。
  • (爱称)： 当用作爱称时，有时可以对男性使用，比如在同性恋群体内。
