Our word came from Polynesian languages such as Tahitian and Samoanand was introduced to English speakers by the explorer Capt. James Cook (who also gave us the wordtaboo ). The earliest use of the verbtattoo in English is found in 1769 in his account of a voyage around the world from 1768 to 1771. Cook also used a noun in his writings of 1769but treated it as a native wordso he is not given credit for the first use of the noun in English (recorded in 1777).In any event,sailors introduced the custom into Europe from the Pacific societies in which it was practiced,and it has remained associated with sailors,although many other people have tattoos as well.尽管在身体上刺出花纹这一做法在史前就已存在，但英语中tattoo 一词却是在距离现在较近的时候才被引入的。 我们这个词源于塔西提语或萨摩亚语等波利尼西亚语族，它是由探险家詹姆斯·库克船长介绍给英语使用者的（库克同时也给了我们taboo 一词）。 动词tattoo 在英语中的首次使用见于库克关于他在1768年-1771年所做的一次环球航行记录中。 库克在他1769年的日志中也把这个词用作一个名词，但因为他只是把它作为一个土著人的词汇对待，所以人们不认为他是第一个在英语中使用该词名词形式的人（记录于1777年）。但不管怎样，是水手们将这种原本是太平洋岛屿社会中的习俗带入欧洲的，所以直到今天这种做法仍然和水手们联系在一起，虽然各种职业的人们都在身上刺花纹〔Muskogean〕A family of Native American languages of the southeast United States that includes Choctaw, Chickasaw, Creek, and Alabama.马斯科吉语：美国东南部的一个美洲土著语族包括亚拉巴马语、乔特陶语、希祁提语和阿帕拉吉语〔Dravidian〕A large family of languages spoken especially in southern India and northern Sri Lanka that includes Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada.达罗毗荼语系：使用于印度南部和斯里兰卡北部的一个大语族，包括泰米尔语、泰卢固语、马拉亚兰语和卡纳拉语〔Uralic〕A language family that comprises the Finno-Ugric and Samoyedic subfamilies.乌拉尔语族：包括芬兰-乌戈尔和萨莫耶德尔语族的语族〔Mayan〕A linguistic stock of Central America that includes Quiché and Yucatec.马雅语：包括基切语和尤卡坦语在内的中美洲语族〔Indonesian〕A subfamily of Austronesian that includes Malay, Tagalog, and the languages of Indonesia.印度尼西亚语族：澳洲印尼语系下的一个次语系，包括马来语、他加禄语及印度尼西亚的各种语言〔Tai〕A family of languages spoken in southeast Asia and southern China that includes Thai, Lao, and Shan.泰语：东南亚和中国南部使用的一个语族，包括泰语、老挝语和掸语〔Tewa〕The group of Tanoan languages spoken by the Tewa.泰瓦语：泰瓦人所说的塔诺阿语族〔bank〕[of Scandinavian origin] [源于斯堪的纳维亚语族] 〔Malay〕The Austronesian language of the Malays.
