助記提示
1. per- "completely" + patrare "carry out, perform, accomplish," originally "bring into existence," originally meant literally 'perform or accomplish in the capacity or quality of a father'.
2. Neither good nor bad in Latin, first used in English in statutes, hence its sense of "perform criminally".
3. per- + petr- (patr-的變體、音變) + -ator.
4. 該詞本無好壞之分，但由于首次進入英語時，被用于法規、法令之中，所以含義由此演變為做壞事。
5. literally "the one who did it" (in English usually an evil act).
6. perpetrator....碰必捶他....................（碰見）做壞事的人
