英文词源
tie
**tie: **[OE] _Tie _comes from a prehistoric Germanic *taugian. This was derived from the base *taukh-, *teuk- ‘pull’ (source also of English _team _and _tug _and closely related to tow). And this in turn went back to Indo-European *deuk-, which also produced Latin _dūcere _‘lead’ (source of English duct, duke, etc). The use of the noun _tie _for a ‘necktie’ dates from the mid 18th century.
=> duct, duke, educate, team, teem, tow, tug
