來(lái)源：
Back-formation from enthusiasm
源自 enthusiasm的逆構(gòu)詞

The verbenthuse is not well accepted; its use in the sentenceThe majority leader enthused over his party`s gains was rejected by 7' percent of the Usage Panel in an earlier survey.This lack of acceptance ofenthuse is often attributed to its status as a back-formation: such words often meet with disapproval on their first appearanceand only gradually become accepted over time.But other back-formationssuch asdiagnose (a back-formation from diagnosis that was first recorded in 8') and donate (first cited in 785 as a back-formation from donation ) are considered unimpeachable English words. This situation suggests thatin truth the continued lack of acceptance ofenthuse, first recorded in 827, may have less to do with doubts about its lineagethan with shortcomings in its character.Unlikeenthusiasm, which denotes an internal emotional state, enthuse denotes either the external expression of emotion,as inShe enthused over attending the Oscar ceremonies, or the inducement of enthusiasm by an external source,as inHe was so enthused about the miracle diet pills that he agreed to do a testimonial for their television ad. It is possible that a distaste for this emphasis on external emotional display and manipulation is for some people the source of an uneasethat manifests itself in a distaste for the word itself.See Usage Note at intuit
動(dòng)詞enthuse 并未被廣泛接受； 其在優(yōu)勢(shì)黨領(lǐng)導(dǎo)人對(duì)本黨的利益極為熱衷 一句中的用法， 在早期調(diào)查中遭到用法使用小組百分之七十六成員的反對(duì)。Enthuse 所以不被接受常歸因于它是由逆序造詞法產(chǎn)生的詞： 這種詞通常在他們剛剛出現(xiàn)時(shí)遭到反對(duì)，只有隨著時(shí)間的流逝才逐漸被人們接受。但是其它逆序生成的詞，如diagnose （由 diagnosis 而逆序生成，最早見(jiàn)于8'年）和 donate （最先于875年作為由 donation 一詞的逆序生成詞被引用）被看作無(wú)可挑剔的英語(yǔ)詞匯。 這一情況說(shuō)明，不接受enthuse 這個(gè)827年便出現(xiàn)的詞匯， 實(shí)際上并非出自對(duì)其來(lái)歷的懷疑，而是由于其本身的缺陷。與enthusiasm 這一可表現(xiàn)出內(nèi)在情感狀況的詞不同， enthuse 要么顯示出情感的外在表達(dá)，如在她為參加奧斯卡頒獎(jiǎng)儀式感到興奮 一句中， 要么顯示出外界對(duì)熱情的誘惑，如他對(duì)神奇的減肥藥十分熱心，意欲為其電視廣告寫(xiě)一份鑒定書(shū) 一句。 有可能由于對(duì)其強(qiáng)調(diào)外在情感的表現(xiàn)與處理的不滿，導(dǎo)致了一些人不愿意使用這個(gè)詞參見(jiàn) intuit
