quiver
verb, nounOne way to hold this word: a bowstring just let go. The movement is small, fast, and it will not stop on command; it dies away by itself. That is the size of it. A hand, a lip, a voice, a leaf, an arrow in a board — all of them can do it, and none of them can be told to stop.
From the word’s history
Wiktionary derives the verb from Middle English quiveren, probably from the adjective quiver ('nimble, active'), itself from Old English *cwifer and probably related to cwic ('alive', modern quick).
根據 Wiktionary,這個動詞來自中古英文 quiveren,很可能是從形容詞 quiver 來的;那個舊形容詞意思是「靈活的、活的」,來自古英語 *cwifer,可能跟 cwic(活著,也就是今天的 quick)有關。可以想成這條線一開始講的是「活蹦蹦地動」,後來收小成那種又細又快的抖。

A second word, same spelling
quiver
nounA different word that only looks the same. One way to hold it: a long case on someone's back with arrows standing in it, close together, so a hand can find one without looking down. The whole point of the object is that whatever is inside can be reached in the middle of the action.
From the word’s history
Wiktionary traces this quiver through Middle English quiver and Anglo-Norman quivre to Old Dutch cocare, simply 'container' (the same family as Dutch koker). It has no connection to the shaking word.
根據 Wiktionary,這個 quiver 經由中古英文 quiver、盎格魯諾曼語 quivre,來自古荷蘭語 cocare,意思就是「容器」,跟荷蘭文的 koker 同一家。它跟「發抖」那個 quiver 沒有任何關係,兩個字只是後來拼成同樣的樣子。
