词源 2
From earlier a (attested by the 14th c.), as a contraction of and and its various Middle English forms.
词源 3
From French à (“various prepositions”) and related prepositions in other Romance languages. Also from related misunderstandings, as all-a-mort from French à la morte.
词源 4
Clipping of rat.
