schooled の語源・成り立ち Etymology
ギリシャ語skholē「余暇」に由来し、ラテン語・古フランス語を経てschoolとなった語に、接尾辞-edを付し形容詞化したもの。同根にscholar（学者）があり、本来の「自由時間」が集う場から「教育の場」へ意味が転じ、体系的に訓練を受けた状態を示す納得の語だ。
Schooled is the past-participle and adjectival form of school, made with the regular suffix -ed. School ultimately comes from Greek skholē, originally “leisure” and then “discussion or learning conducted during leisure.” It passed through Latin schola and Old French before entering English. Scholar belongs to the same historical word family. The adjective therefore describes the result of receiving organized education or training.
