- digest
- digest: [15] English took the verb digest from dīgest-, the past participle of Latin dīgerere. This was a compound verb formed from the prefix dī- ‘apart’ and gerere ‘carry’, and originally meant ‘divide, distribute’ – a sense which developed via ‘dissolve’ into the specifically physiological ‘dissolve and obtain nutrients from food in the body’.
A further semantic offshoot of ‘distribute’ was ‘orderly arrangement’, and in fact the earliest use of the word in English was as the noun digest ‘summary of information’ [14], from Latin dīgesta, the neuter plural of the past participle, literally ‘things arranged’.
=> congest, gesture, ingest - digest (n.)
- "collection of writing," late 14c., from Latin digesta, from neuter plural of digestus, literally "digested thing," noun use of past participle of digerere "to separate, divide, arrange," from dis- "apart" (see dis-) + gerere "to carry" (see gest).
- digest (v.)
- "assimilate food in bowels," late 14c., from Latin digestus (see digest (n.)). Related: Digested; digesting.

单词分析
这些动词均有“吸收”之意。absorb普通用词,词义广泛,既可指吸收光、热、液体等具体东西,又可指吸收知识等抽象概念的东西。
suck作“吸收”解时,可与absorb换用,但还可有“吮吸”之意。
digest侧重在消化道内改变食物的化学结构后被人体吸收。
incorporate指一物或多物与它物相融合,形成一整体。
