Nguồn gốc từ

From Middle English rūse, from Old French rëuse, ruse (evasive movements of a pursued animal; trickery) (modern ruse), from ruser (to use cunning, to be crafty, beguile), possibly from Latin rursus (backward; on the contrary; again, in return) or Latin recūsāre, from recūsō (to decline, refuse; to object to, protest, reject). recuse rouse in the latter case.
