我们得到结果如下
abandon (n.)
"a letting loose, freedom from self-restraint, surrender to natural impulses," by 1822 as a French word in English (it remained in italics or quotation marks through much of the 19c.; the naturalizedabandonment in this sense was attempted from 1834), from a sense in French abandon"abandonment; permission" (12c.), from abandonner "to surrender, release" (see abandon (v.)).
The noun was borrowed earlier (c. 1400) from Old French in a sense "(someone's) control;" and compare Middle English adverbial phrase at abandon, i.e. "recklessly," attested from late 14c. In Old French, the past-participle adjective abandoné came to mean "zealous, eager, unreserved."
所以abandon作为名词主要的意思就是“免于自我约束，向自然冲动投降。“所以那就是放纵的意思啦
abandon (v.)
The Old French verb abandoner is the source of abandon. It was based on a bandon, meaning literally ‘under control or jurisdiction’, which was used in the phrase mettre a bandon ‘put someone under someone else’s control’ – hence ‘abandon them’. The word bandon came, in altered form, from Latin bannum ‘proclamation’, which is circuitously related to English banns ‘proclamation of marriage’ and is an ancestor of contraband.
abandon作为动词的意思：”放弃，抛弃“也是来自于法语 ”a bandon“ 就是说把某些人放到另外一些人的控制之下，因此，你就是”放弃“了他们。
所以abandon这个词的来历就是这样的。
