mutiny 嘩變，暴亂

來自拉丁語(yǔ)movere,移動(dòng)，運(yùn)動(dòng)，詞源同move,-t,過去分詞后綴。后引申詞義軍事嘩變，反叛，嘩變，暴亂等，特指士兵或船員的暴亂。詞義可能受拉丁語(yǔ)mutare的影響，即使改變，要求改變。

mutiny: mutiny: [16] Etymologically, a mutiny is simply a ‘movement’. The word was adapted from the now obsolete mutine, a borrowing from French mutin ‘rebellion’. This in turn was a derivative of an earlier muete, literally ‘movement’, hence ‘rebellion’ (remembered in English in the related émeute ‘uprising’), which came from Vulgar Latin *movita, a descendant of Latin movēre ‘move’ (source of English move).
=> émeute, motion, move
mutiny (n.): 1560s, with noun suffix -y (4) + obsolete verb mutine "revolt" (1540s), from Middle French mutiner "to revolt," from meutin "rebellious," from meute "a revolt, movement," from Vulgar Latin *movita "a military uprising," from fem. past participle of Latin movere "to move" (see move (v.)).
mutiny (v.): 1580s, from mutiny (n.). Alternative mutine is recorded from 1550s. Related: Mutinied; mutinying.
