elaborate[elaborate 词源字典]

elaborate: [16] Etymologically, something that is elaborate has been produced by hard work. The word comes from ēlabōrātus, the past participle of Latin ēlabōrāre; this was a compound verb formed from the prefix ex- ‘out’ and labor ‘work’ (source of English labour). The notion of ‘painstaking work’ had passed by the early 17th century into ‘extreme detail’.
