詞源
编辑繼承自中古英語 sorow、sorwe、sorghe、sorȝe,繼承自古英語 sorg、sorh (“关心、焦虑、悲痛”),繼承自原始西日耳曼語 *sorgu,繼承自原始日耳曼語 *surgō(對比西弗里斯蘭語 soarch、荷蘭語 zorg、德語 Sorge、丹麥語、瑞典語和挪威語 sorg),源自原始印歐語 *swergʰ- (“看管、担心;生病、受苦”)(對比古愛爾蘭語 serg (“疾病”)、吐火羅語B sark (“疾病”)、立陶宛語 sirgti (“生病”)、梵語 सूर्क्षति (sū́rkṣati, “擔心”))。雖然意思和詞形上和 sorry、sore 相似,詞源上和這兩者並無關聯。
