词源
Old English-hād, originally an independent noun meaning'person, condition, quality'.
-hood, suffix|hʊd|[ME. -hod (-hode):—OE. -hád = OS. -hêd, OHG. -heit.]Orig. a distinct n., meaning ‘person, personality, sex, condition, quality, rank’ (see had n.), which being freely combined with nouns, as in OE. cild-hád child-condition, mæᵹð-hád virgin state, pápan hád papal dignity, ceased at length to be used as a separate word, and survived as a mere suffix, and is thus noteworthy as a late example of the process by which suffixes arose. The ME. form was regularly -hôd with open ô, as still in Chaucer; but in the 15th c. it had become close ō (riming in Bokenham's Seyntys with gōd ‘good’), and this duly gave mod.Eng. hood. A parallel suffix, from same root and in same sense, is -head, ME. -hed, -hede, Sc. -heid.A considerable number of derivatives in -hood go back to OE. -hád, e.g. bishophood, childhood, priesthood; many are of later origin, either with -hood substituted for the cognate -hede, -head, e.g. falsehood, lustihood, or as analogical formations, in some of which -hood has displaced earlier suffixes. Being a living suffix, -hood can be affixed at will to almost any word denoting a person or concrete thing, and to many adjectives, to express condition or state, so that the number of these derivatives is indefinite. Nonce-formations are numerous:1599Nashe Lenten Stuffe 46 Their heauenly hoods in theyr synode thus decreede.a1639W. Whately Prototypes i. iv. (1640) 45 It is not man-hood, it is dog-hood, or I may terme it beare-hood.1662Sparrow tr. Behme's Rem. Wks., Apol. conc. Perf. 117 Man in his self-hood and I-hood.1876W. Bathgate Deep Things of God ii. 19 Acquainted with the great reality of their Soulhood.1883Daily News 3 Oct. 2/2 Believing in the white Aylesburys..as the final expression of duckhood.
-hood
word-forming element meaning "state or condition of being," from Old English -had "condition, position," cognate with German -heit, Dutch -heid, all from Proto-Germanic *haidus "manner, quality," literally "bright appearance," from PIE (s)kai- (1) "bright, shining." Originally a free-standing word (see hade); in Modern English it survives only in this suffix.
-hood /hʊd/ suffix. OE.
ORIGIN: Old English -hād = Old Saxon -hēd, Old & Modern High German -heit, orig. a Germanic noun meaning ‘person, sex, condition, rank, quality’, repr. by Old English hād, Old Saxon hēd, Old High German heit, Old Norse heiðr honour, worth, Gothic haidus kind, manner.
Forming nouns of condition or quality or indicating a collection or group from nouns and adjectives, as childhood, falsehood, sisterhood.
