sumptuous 奢華的，奢侈的

來自拉丁語 sumptus,購買的，花銷的，吃喝的，過去分詞格于 sumere,購買，花銷，縮寫自 *sub-emere,來自 sub,向下，emere,買，詞源同 assume,assumption,emption.-ous,形容詞后綴。后引申詞義奢華的，奢侈的。

sumptuous: sumptuous: [15] Etymologically, sumptuous denotes ‘expensive, costly’; its modern connotations of ‘luxury’ or ‘lavishness’ are a secondary development. It comes via Old French somptueux from Latin sumptuōsus, a derivative of sumptus ‘expense’. This in turn was based on the past participle of the verb sūmere ‘spend, consume, take’ (source also of English assume [15], consume [14], presume [14], resume [15], and subsume [16]). And sūmere in turn was a compound verb, formed from the prefix sub- ‘under’ and emere ‘take’ (source of English example, redeem, etc).
=> assume, consume, example, presume, redeem, resume, sample, subsume
sumptuous (adj.): late 15c., from Old French sumptueux or directly from Latin sumptuosus "costly, very expensive; lavish, wasteful," from sumptus, past participle of sumere "to borrow, buy, spend, eat, drink, consume, employ, take, take up," contraction of *sub-emere, from sub- "under" (see sub-) + emere "to take, buy" (see exempt (adj.)).
