implosion 的詞源
implosion(n.)
「向內爆裂,突然崩塌」,1829年,仿照explosion(爆炸)一詞而來,結合了in-(2)「進入,內,在,上」(來自印歐語系詞根*en「內」)。
And to show how entire the neglect and confusion have been, they speak in the same breath of all these explosions, and of the explosion of a mixture of hydrogen and oxygen, the result of which, instead of being a gas or an enlargement of bulk, a positive quantity, is a negative one.

早期常用於指深海壓力的效果,或在語音學中。比喻意義出現於1960年。
