| 字源 | damp (n.) early 14c., "a noxious vapor," perhaps in Old English but there is no record of it. If not, probably from Middle Low German damp; ultimately in either case from Proto-Germanic *dampaz (cognates: Old High German damph, German Dampf "vapor;" Old Norse dampi "dust"). Sense of "moisture, humidity" is first certainly attested 1706. damp (adj.) 1580s, "dazed," from damp (n.). Meaning "slightly wet" is from 1706.
