Picture a windy night. The wind does not push steadily; it arrives in bursts, bangs the shutters, throws the leaves about, and then drops. It is loud while it lasts and it changes nothing. Everything this word does grows out of that night. Put a person where the wind was, and you have someone whose voice fills the room, whose words sound violent, and whose noise passes without leaving a mark.
From the word’s history
Wiktionary records Middle English blusteren, 'to wander about aimlessly', with the modern sense apparently picked up from Middle Low German blüstren, 'to blow violently', and notes the word is related to blow and blast.
來源資料寫著：中古英文 blusteren 原本是「漫無目的地亂走」，後來的意思看來是從中古低地德文 blüstren（猛吹）來的，而且它跟 blow、blast 同一家。這條線索正好把「風」放在最前面，人的用法排在後面。
