The English verbchaperon, "to be a chaperon,” is first recorded in Jane Austen'sSense and Sensibility, begun in 1796 as a sketch called "Elinor and Marianne"and published as a novel in 1811.中学舞会上的年长监护者似乎与英语词chaperon 的最初含义关系极微，（当时其意为“鹰的羽冠”）， 与后来该词的意思“年轻单身女子的伴护人”，关系也不甚大。“鹰的羽冠”的意思，最初见于作于1400年以前的一个中古英语文本，反映了这个古法语词chaperon 的最初的“羽冠”的含义。 为了理解为什么我们所用的chaperon 一词具有了“女伴护人”的意思， 我们需要知道法语中表示“覆以羽冠”意思的动词chaperonner 是从 chaperon 派生出来的， 这个词后来逐渐发展具有了“保护”的意思。受动词意义的影响，法语名词chaperon 也有了“伴护”的含义， 英语借用了这个含义，首见于1720年发表的一部作品。在早期用法上，英语词chaperon 是指一个在社交场合陪伴并保护一名未成婚少女的人，尤指年长妇女。 英语动词chaperon “做伴护人”， 最初见于简·奥斯丁的理智与情感 ， 此作品开始是1796年动笔的一部名为“艾利诺和马利恩”的文学速写，1811年作为一部小说出版〔jailbait〕A person below the age of consent with whom sexual intercourse can constitute statutory rape.祸水妞儿，未成年少女：指其小于同意年龄、一经与之发生性关系即在法律上构成强奸的女人〔subdeb〕A subdebutante.不到二十岁的少女：即将进入社交界的少女（们）〔teenybopper〕A teenager who follows the latest fad or craze, as in dress or music.少女流行音乐迷：追逐最新时尚或风气的少女，如时装或流行音乐〔miss〕Miss Used as a courtesy title before the surname or full name of a girl or single woman.See Usage Note at Ms. Miss 小姐：用在一个少女或单身女子姓或全名之前的有礼貌的称呼 参见 Ms.〔petite〕Small, slender, and trim.
