词源说明
From Late Middle English exclamacion, exclamacioun (“calling or crying out; complaint, lament”), borrowed from Middle French exclamation (modern French exclamation), from Latin exclāmātiō (“exclamation”), from exclāmō (“to call out, cry; to exclaim, shout”) + -tiō (suffix forming action nouns denoting processes, actions, or results of actions). Exclāmō is derived from ex- (prefix meaning ‘away; out’) + clāmō (“to call out, cry; to exclaim, shout”) (probably ultimately from Proto-Indo-European *kelh₁- (“to call out to”)).
