词源：
admiral(n.)c. 1200, amiral, admirail, “Saracen commander or chieftain,” from Old French amirail (12c.) “Saracen military commander; any military commander,” ultimately from medieval Arabic amir “military commander,” probably via Medieval Latin use of the word for “Muslim military leader.”
Amiral de la mer “commander of a fleet of ships” is in late 13c. Anglo-French documents. Meaning “highest-ranking naval officer” in English is from early 15c. The extension of the word’s meaning from “commander on land” to “commander at sea” likely began in 12c. Sicily with Medieval Latin amiratus and then spread to the continent, but the word also continued to mean “Muslim military commander” in Europe in the Middle Ages. The Arabic word was later Englished as emir.
As
amīr is constantly followed by
-al- in all such titles,
amīr-al- was naturally assumed by Christian writers as a substantive word, and variously Latinized …. [OED]
Also in Old French and Middle English the word was further conformed to familiar patterns as amirauld, amiraunt. The unetymological -d- probably is from influence of Latin ad-mirabilis (see admire). Italian form almiraglio, Spanish almirante are from confusion with Arabic words in al-. As the name of a type of butterfly from 1720, according to OED possibly a corruption of admirable.also from c. 1200

海军上将（n。）c。 1200年，阿米拉尔（Amiral），上将，“萨拉森（Saracen）指挥官或酋长”，来自旧法国阿米里尔（12c。）“萨拉森军事指挥官；任何军事指挥官，“最终来自中世纪的阿拉伯语阿米尔“军事指挥官”，可能是通过Mediev latin使用该词来用于“穆斯林军事领导人”。 Amiral de la Mer“船队的指挥官”在13c后期。盎格鲁法国文件。意思是英语的“最高海军军官”是从15c开始的。该词的含义从“陆上指挥官”延伸到“海上指挥官”的含义可能始于12c。西西里岛与中世纪的拉丁阿米拉图斯（Amiratus）一起传播到大陆，但这个词在中世纪的欧洲也继续表示“穆斯林军事指挥官”。阿拉伯语后来以埃米尔（Emir）的身份进行了处理。由于Amīr在所有这些标题中都经常紧随其后，因此基督徒作家自然地将Amīr-Al-视为一个实质性的词，并具有不同的拉丁语。…[OED]在旧的法语和中间英语中，这个词进一步符合Amiraunt的Amirauld熟悉的模式。非素养学-D-可能来自拉丁语 – 米拉比利斯的影响（请参阅欣赏）。西班牙almirante的意大利形态是与阿拉伯语中的混淆。根据奥德（Oed）的说法，作为一种蝴蝶的名称，据OED称，可能是令人钦佩的腐败。 1200
