记忆方法
1、write 最早的意思是"刻、划"——写字一开始就是在石头木头上刻痕，这个来路留在 scar（伤痕）、shear（剪）、carve（雕刻）、scribe（抄写员）这一族"刻划"词里。
2、拼写提醒：write 的 w 不发音，读 /raɪt/，同音一大串 right（对的、右边）、light（光）、night（夜）、eight（八）——写的时候靠首字母区分。
3、变化三形 write / wrote / written 开头的 w 一个都不能丢；名词 writ（法律里的"令状、法院命令"）是它留下的文书义。

英语词源
- write
-
write: [OE] The etymological notion underlying write is of ‘cutting’ or ‘scratching’ (it is related to German reissen ‘tear’). The earliest form of writing involved cutting marks on stone, wood, etc, and the same word was carried over when the technology of writing moved on to pen and ink. It comes from a prehistoric Germanic *wrītan, but its ultimate origins are not known. The noun writ [OE] goes back to the same Germanic base.
=> writ - write (v.)
- Old English writan "to score, outline, draw the figure of," later "to set down in writing" (class I strong verb; past tense wrat, past participle writen), from Proto-Germanic *writan "tear, scratch" (cognates: Old Frisian writa "to write," Old Saxon writan "to tear, scratch, write," Old Norse rita "write, scratch, outline," Old High German rizan "to write, scratch, tear," German reißen "to tear, pull, tug, sketch, draw, design"), outside connections doubtful.
For men use to write an evill turne in marble stone, but a good turne in the dust. [More, 1513]
Words for "write" in most Indo-European languages originally mean "carve, scratch, cut" (such as Latin scribere, Greek graphein, glyphein, Sanskrit rikh-); a few originally meant "paint" (Gothic meljan, Old Church Slavonic pisati, and most of the modern Slavic cognates). To write (something) off (1680s) originally was from accounting; figurative sense is recorded from 1889. Write-in "unlisted candidate" is recorded from 1932.
