Nguồn gốc từ
ine-pro Borrowed from French cajoler, probably a blend of Middle French cageoler (chatter like a jay) (from gajole, dialectal diminutive of geai (jaybird)) + Old French gaioler (entice into a cage), which is from gabiola, from caveola (whence caveola), diminutive of Latin cavea (cage, coop, enclosure, stall). More at cage cave cavum cavus jail.
