词源
scowl (v.)”lower the brows, as in anger or displeasure, put on a frowning look,” c. 1400, scoulen, probably from a Scandinavian source (compare Norwegian skule “look furtively, squint, look embarrassed,” Danish skule “to scowl, cast down the eyes”). According to Klein’s sources, this is probably related to Old English sceolh “wry, oblique,” Old High German scelah “curved,” German scheel “squint-eyed;” from a PIE root *sqel- “crooked, curved, bent.” Related: Scowled; scowling; scowlingly.Related entries & more

下面是词源的翻译(机器翻译比较难翻,参考着看)
皱眉(v.)“低下眉毛,如愤怒或不悦,皱起眉头”c。 1400,scoulen,可能来自斯堪的纳维亚语(比较挪威语 skule“偷偷地看,眯着眼,看起来尴尬”,丹麦语 skule“皱眉,垂下眼睛”)。根据克莱因的消息来源,这可能与古英语 sceolh“扭曲、倾斜”、古高地德语 scelah“弯曲”、德语 scheel“斜视”有关;来自 PIE 词根 *sqel-“弯曲的、弯曲的、弯曲的”。相关:皱眉;皱眉;皱着眉头。相关条目及更多
