英文词源

protect
**protect: **[16] The -_tect _element of _protect _goes back to the past participle of Latin _tegere _‘cover’ (source of English _integument _[17] and _toga _[16] and related to thatch). Combination with the prefix prō- ‘in front’ produced _prōtegere _‘cover in front, protect’. Another English product of the past participle _tectus _is _detect _[15].
=> detect, integument, thatch, toga
