释义

deputyn.

/ˈdɛpjʊti/
Forms: Middle English depute, deputee, Scottish depwte, 1500s deputye, 1500s–1600s deputie, 1600s– deputy.
Etymology: < French député, substantive use of past participle of députer to depute v. Originally spelt depute ; in one form of which the final e became mute (though usually retained in writing); in another form it continued to be pronounced, and then as in city n., etc., it passed through -ee , -ie to -y . (Compare †assigne , assign , assignee .) The Middle English examples of depute are placed here, but might as well stand under depute adj. See also the corrupted forms debite n., debity n.
