直立一词源自拉丁语ectus,意思是“直立、高举、崇高”或“渴望、警觉、兴奋”。 “竖立”是一个动词,例如,仅使用口香糖和牙签就可以花费数年时间来竖立埃菲尔铁塔的复制品。 Elect也是一个形容词,指高大、坚固、笔直或僵硬的东西,就像一棵半死的植物,当你给它浇水时,它会变得更加直立。

词源
erect (adj.)late 14c., “upright, not bending,” from Latin erectus “upright, elevated, lofty; eager, alert, aroused; resolute; arrogant,” past participle of erigere “raise or set up,” from e- “up, out of” + regere “to direct, keep straight, guide” (from PIE root *reg- “move in a straight line,” with derivatives meaning “to direct in a straight line,” thus “to lead, rule”).Related entries & more

下面是词源的翻译(机器翻译比较难翻,参考着看)
直立(形容词)晚14世纪,“直立,不弯曲”,源自拉丁语ecterus“直立,高举,崇高;渴望,警觉,唤醒;坚决;傲慢”,erigere的过去分词“举起或建立”,源自e -“向上,走出”+regere“引导,保持直线,引导”(来自PIE根*reg-“沿直线移动”,衍生词意思是“沿直线引导”,因此“引导,规则”)。相关条目及更多
