词源

First attested in 1623; borrowed from Latin dēambulātus, perfect passive participle of dēambulō (“to walk, take a stroll”) (see -ate (verb-forming suffix)), from dē- + ambulō (“to walk”). The medical sense is likely a new denominal from deambulation or by translation from Romance languages such as French déambuler and Italian deambulare.
