英語詞源

digest

digest: [15] English took the verb digest from dīgest-, the past participle of Latin dīgerere. This was a compound verb formed from the prefix - ‘apart’ and gerere ‘carry’, and originally meant ‘divide, distribute’ – a sense which developed via ‘dissolve’ into the specifically physiological ‘dissolve and obtain nutrients from food in the body’.

A further semantic offshoot of ‘distribute’ was ‘orderly arrangement’, and in fact the earliest use of the word in English was as the noun digest ‘summary of information’ [14], from Latin dīgesta, the neuter plural of the past participle, literally ‘things arranged’.


=> congest, gesture, ingest

digest (n.)

"collection of writing," late 14c., from Latin digesta, from neuter plural of digestus, literally "digested thing," noun use of past participle of digerere "to separate, divide, arrange," from dis- "apart" (see dis-) + gerere "to carry" (see gest).

digest (v.)

"assimilate food in bowels," late 14c., from Latin digestus (see digest (n.)). Related: Digested; digesting.
