语源
Middle English: via Old French from Latin humormoisture, from humere(see humid). The original sense was bodily fluid (surviving in aqueous humourand vitreous humour, fluids in the eyeball); it was used specifically for any of the cardinal humours (sense 3), whence mental disposition (thought to be caused by the relative proportions of the humours). This led, in the 16th cent., to the senses state of mind, mood (sense 2) and whim, fancy, hence to humour someoneto indulge a persons whim. Sense 1 dates from the late 16th cent
