中文詞源
該詞直接來自拉丁語，但其進一步的詞源並不清楚，有人猜測它可能來自於表示“隱藏”的拉丁語單詞 abdere，用於表示“隱藏內髒的地方”，但是這種猜測並沒有什麽事實根據，所以該詞的詞源對我們並沒有什麽幫助。
英文詞源
- abdomen (n.)
- 1540s, "belly fat," from Latin abdomen "belly," which is of unknown origin, perhaps from abdere "conceal," with a sense of "concealment of the viscera," or else "what is concealed" by proper dress. De Vaan, however, finds this derivation "unfounded." Purely anatomical sense is from 1610s. Zoological sense of "posterior division of the bodies of arthropods" first recorded 1788.
