词源
"late Middle English： from Latin reducere, from re- ‘back, again' + ducere ‘bring, lead'. The original sense was ‘bring back' （hence ‘restore', now surviving in sense 5）; this led to ‘bring to a different state', then ‘bring to a simpler or lower state' （hence sense 3）; and finally ‘diminish in size or amount' （sense 1, dating from the late 18th cent.）."
