记忆方法

1. overt => covert ( c- [from com-, intensive prefix; com- => co- => c-] + overt, 它们两属于反义同源 ).
2. 而 covert 又是由 cover 的古法语形式的过去分词形式直接借用过来的，因此你可以将 covert 直接看做是 cover 的古法语形式的过去分词。
3. 反义同源词根：oper-/opert(过去分词形式)(operire "cover, close") <==> aper-/apert(过去分词形式)(aperire "uncover, open").
4. 同源同义音变：aper-/apert(过去分词形式)(aperire "uncover, open") ==> over-/overt(过去分词形式)(古法语：overt, past participle of ovrir "uncover, open").
5. PIE prefix *ap- "off, away" + base *wer- "cover"; PIE prefix *op- "over" + base *wer- "cover".
6. 注意同源音变的区别：apert- => overt; copert- => covert; coper- => cover.
