| 释义 | 〔garage〕It is difficult for a 20th-century imagination to envision a world without garages or a language without the wordgarage. However, probably before the 19thand certainly before the 18th century the word did not exist,and possibly before the end of the 19th century the thing itself did not exist.Our word is a direct borrowing of Frenchgarage, which is first recorded in 1802 in the sense "place where one docks.”The verbgarer, from which garage was derived, originally meant "to put merchandise under shelter,”then "to moor a boat,” and then "to put a vehicle into a place for safekeeping,”that is, agarage, a sense first recorded in French in 1901. English almost immediately borrowed this French word,the first instance being found in 1902.对于20世纪来说，很难想象一个没有车库的世界或者一种语言没有garage 这个词。 但可能在19世纪以前，或者肯定在18世纪以前这个词并不存在，而且极有可能在19世纪末期这个词本身也不存在。我们的单词是直接从法语中garage 这个词借来的， 第一次于1802年使用“停放的地方”这一含义。从动词garer 派生出来了 garage ， 本意为“把货物放在保护处”，后成为“停靠船只”，而后又变成“为保管而把汽车放入一个地方”。也就是说garage 的含义是1901年在法语中记载的。 英语几乎马上借用了这个法语词汇，它的第一例可在1902年找到〔time〕Almost instantly; immediately.几乎马上地；立刻 |
