词源
Middle English (denoting the living body of a person or animal)： alteration of CORSE by association with Latin corpus, a change which also took place in French （Old French cors becoming corps）. The p was originally silent, as in French; the final e was rare before the 19th cent., but now distinguishes corpse from corps.
