Origin:
The word "atremble" originates from the Latin verb "tremere," meaning "to tremble or shake." It arrived in English through the Old French word "trembler," which also meant "to tremble."
The prefix "a" is an Old English preposition that has come to be used in English as a prefix meaning "in" or "on." In this case, it adds the sense of "trembling" or "being in a state of trembling" to the verb "tremble."
The word "tremble" has been used in English since the 13th century and has remained in constant use ever since. It is closely related to the words "tremor" (a slight shaking or trembling) and "trembling" (the act or state of shaking with fear or excitement).
