词源
tart (adj.)”having a sharp taste,” 1520s, also attested once, obscurely, from late 14c., perhaps from Old English teart “painful, sharp, severe, rough” (in reference to punishment, pain, suffering), from Germanic *ter-t-, from PIE root *der- “to split, flay, peel.” But the gap in the record is unexplained. Figurative use, with reference to words, speech, etc., is attested from c. 1600. Related: Tartly; tartness, both also absent in Middle English.Related entries & more

下面是词源的翻译(机器翻译比较难翻,参考着看)
tart (adj.)“有敏锐的品味”,1520 年代,从 14 世纪晚期也曾模糊地证明过一次,也许来自古英语 teart“痛苦的、尖锐的、严重的、粗糙的”(指的是惩罚、痛苦、苦难),源自日耳曼语 *ter-t-,源自 PIE 词根 *der- “分裂、剥皮、剥皮。”但记录中的差距无法解释。比喻的使用,参考单词,演讲等,从 c 中得到证明。 1600.相关:Tartly;酸味,两者在中古英语中也不存在。相关条目及更多
