- upholster
- upholster: [19] Upholster has no etymological connection with holsters. It is a back-formation from upholsterer [17], which itself was derived from an earlier but now obsolete upholster ‘person who deals in or repairs small articles’. This was an agent noun formed from the verb uphold [13] (a compound of up and hold), in the now defunct sense ‘repair’.
=> hold - upholster (v.)
- 1853, back-formation from upholsterer. Related: Upholstered; upholstering.

记忆方法
1. unhold 含有“支持、维护、维修”之意,由此 upholder / upholdster / upholdester 用来特指“家具维修工,家具维修、维护商”,后来在 upholdster 的基础上再加后缀 -er 形成 upholdsterer, 以及由其简化、缩略而形成的异体 upholsterer, 用以指“家具装饰用品商;室内装潢商”,后来又在 upholsterer 的基础上逆构出动词 upholster, 用以表示“为(家具等)装上套、垫或弹簧等,为(房间)装设地毯、帘幕等”。
2. 因此,要注意该词与 holster 毫无关系。
