词源

"early 16th cent.: probably from Latin cantare ‘to sing' （see CHANT）． The early meaning was ‘musical sound, singing'； in the mid 17th cent． this gave rise to the senses ‘whining manner of speaking' and ‘form of words repeated mechanically in such a manner' （for example a beggar's plea）， hence ‘jargon' （of beggars and other such groups）．Middle English （denoting an edge or brink）： from Middle Low German kant, kante, Middle Dutch cant, ‘point, side, edge'， based on a Romance word related to medieval Latin cantus ‘corner, side’．"
