Tongan tabu [under prohibition]
湯加語 tabu [禁止的]
註釋
Among the many discoveries of Capt. James Cook was a linguistic one, the term taboo. Cook used this word in his journal of 1777 while he was in the Friendly Islands (now Tonga). Hence, even though similar words occur in other Polynesian languages, the form taboo from Tongan tabu is the form we have borrowed. The Tongans used tabu as an adjective; they spoke of persons or things that were tabu, that is, 「under prohibition, forbidden, or set apart. 」 Cook, besides borrowing the word into English, also made it into a noun referring to the prohibition itself and a verb meaning 「to make someone or something taboo.」 From its origins in Polynesian society the word taboo has spread throughout the English-speaking world and has been applied in ways that never occurred to the people from whom Cook originally borrowed it.
詹姆士·庫克船長的許多發現中有一個是語言上的，即taboo 這個詞。 庫克在他1777年的航海日誌中使用了這個詞，當時他在弗蘭德裡群島（現在的湯加）。因此，雖然相似的詞也曾出現在其它的波利尼亞語言中，但是從湯加語的tabu 發展而來的 taboo 這一形式就成了我們所借用的形式。 湯加人將tabu 用作一個形容詞； 他們談論某人或某事是tabu 的， 即意味著它們是「處於禁令下的、被禁止的或和別人分開對待的」。 庫克除了把這個詞借用到英語中，還把它變成了一名詞，表示禁止，也把它用作一個動詞，意為「使其人或某事成為禁忌」。 起源於波利尼西亞社會的taboo 這一詞已在說英語的世界中被廣為使用， 而它的一些用法是庫克當年向其借用該詞的人們所從未想到的
