词源
crusade (n.)”military expedition under the banner of the cross,” 1706, a respelling or replacement of croisade (1570s), from French croisade (16c.), Spanish cruzada, both from Medieval Latin cruciata, past participle of cruciare “to mark with a cross,” from Latin crux (genitive crucis) “cross” (see crux).
The modern English form is comparatively late, and even the earlier croisade is post-Middle English (French croisade replaced earlier croisée). Middle English nouns were croiserie (c. 1300), creiserie.
Especially in reference to the medieval expeditions undertaken by European Christians for recovery of the Holy Land from Muslims. Generally they are counted as seven between 1095 and 1271, but some smaller efforts (e.g. the “Children’s Crusade”) are omitted and the word sometimes is extended to other religiously motivated expeditions (e.g. against the Albigenses or the Prussians). Figurative sense of “vigorous campaign for a moral cause or against a public evil” is from 1786.Related entries & more

下面是词源的翻译(机器翻译比较难翻,参考着看)
十字军东征 (n.)“十字军旗帜下的军事远征”,1706 年,对 croisade (1570s) 的重新拼写或替换,源自法语 croisade (16c.)、西班牙语 cruzada,两者均源自中世纪拉丁语 cruciata,cruciare 的过去分词“用十字标记”,源自拉丁语 crux(属格 crucis)“十字架”(参见 crux)。现代英语形式相对较晚,甚至更早的 croisade 也是后中古英语(法语 croisade 取代了早期的 croisée)。中古英语名词有 croiserie(约 1300 年)、creiserie。特别是欧洲基督徒为从穆斯林手中夺回圣地而进行的中世纪远征。一般来说,1095 年至 1271 年间,他们被算作七次,但一些较小的努力(例如“儿童十字军”)被省略,并且这个词有时被扩展到其他出于宗教动机的远征(例如反对阿尔比派或普鲁士人)。 “为道德事业或反对公共罪恶而进行的大力运动”的比喻意义来自 1786 年。相关条目及更多
