governess词源

governess (n.)

mid-15c., \"female ruler,\" shortening of governouresse \"a woman who rules\" (late 14c.), from Old French governeresse \"female ruler or administrator\" (see governor + -ess). The Latin fem, form was gubernatrix. In the sense of \"a female teacher in a private home\" governess it is attested from 1712, probably as a fem. of governor in the now-obsolete sense \"one who has charge of a young man\'s education and activities, a tutor\" (1570s).
