语源

Middle English: via Old French from Latin humor 'moisture', from humere (see humid). The original sense was 'bodily fluid' (surviving in aqueous humour and vitreous humour, fluids in the eyeball); it was used specifically for any of the cardinal humours (sense 3), whence 'mental disposition' (thought to be caused by the relative proportions of the humours). This led, in the 16th cent., to the senses 'state of mind, mood' (sense 2) and 'whim, fancy', hence to humour someone 'to indulge a person's whim'. Sense 1 dates from the late 16th cent
