词源
pluck(v.)Middle English plukken, “pull (something) off or out from a surface” (especially hair or feathers, but also teeth), from late Old English ploccian, pluccian “pull off, cull,” from West Germanic *plokken (source also of Middle Low German plucken, Middle Dutch plocken, Dutch plukken, Flemish plokken, German pflücken). This is perhaps from an unrecorded Gallo-Roman or Vulgar Latin *piluccare (source of Old French peluchier, late 12c.; Italian piluccare), a frequentative, ultimately from Latin pilare “pull out hair,” from pilus “hair” (see pile (n.3)). But despite the similarities, OED finds difficulties with this and cites gaps in historical evidence. From late 14c. as “to pull sharply with a sudden jerk or force (of the strings of a bow, harp, etc.). Related: Plucked; plucking.

To pluck a rose, an expression said to be used by women for going to the necessary house, which in the country usually stands in the garden. [F. Grose, “Classical Dictionary of the Vulgar Tongue,” 1785]

This euphemistic use is attested from 1610s. To pluck up “summon up” (courage, heart, etc.) is from c. 1300.
