註釋
Kidnapper seems to have originated appropriately enough among those who perpetrate this crime. We know this because kid and napper, the two parts of the compound, were slang of the sort that criminals might use. Kid, which some still find slangy, was considered low slang when kidnapper was formed, and napper is obsolete slang for a thief, coming from the verb nap, 「to seize a person or thing, steal.」 Nap is possibly a variant of nab, which still has a slangy ring to it. In 1678, the year in which the word is first recorded, kidnappers plied their trade on behalf of plantations in colonies such as the ones in North America. The term later took on the broader sense that it has today. The verb kidnap is recorded later (1682) than the noun and so is possibly a back-formation, that is, people have assumed that a kidnapper kidnaps.
Kidnapper 似乎恰好源於犯這種罪的人。 我們知道這個復合詞的兩個部分kid 和 napper 是這種罪犯們可能用的俚語。 Kidnapper 形成時 kid 被認為是低等的俚語，現在kid仍有俚語性質， napper 是指小偷的廢棄的俚語， 從動詞nap 而來， 指「抓住人或東西，偷。」Nap 可能是nab 的變體， 它也仍有俚語的性質。1678年這個詞在英語中第一次記錄時，綁架者為了如北美的殖民地種植園的利益進行了大量綁架。這個詞後來又有像今天這麼廣的含義，動詞kidnap 比名詞記錄要晚（1682年）， 所以可能是逆構詞，也就是人們認為「綁架者」會綁架
