vogue[vogue 词源字典]

vogue: [16] The etymological notion underlying the word vogue is of being borne along on the ‘waves’ of fashion. Its immediate source was French vogue. This was originally used for ‘rowing’, but was subsequently extended metaphorically via ‘smooth easy course’ and ‘successful course’ to ‘fashionable course’. French vogue itself, though, was of Germanic origin. It was a derivative of the verb voguer ‘row, go along smoothly’, which was probably borrowed from Old Low German *wogon ‘float on the waves’ (a relative of English waggon, way, etc).
