词源

From Middle English forbreken, from Old English forbrecan (“to break up, break in pieces, violate, destroy”), from Proto-Germanic *frabrekaną (“to break up”), from Proto-Indo-European *bʰreg- (“to break”), equivalent to for- (“fully, up”) + break. Cognate with Dutch verbreken (“to sever, disrupt”), German verbrechen (“to commit, perpetrate”).
