释义 | 〔sherbet〕The wordsherbet has been in the English language for several centuries (first recorded in 1603) but not as a name for what one normally thinks of as sherbet.The word came into English from Ottoman Turkishsherbet or Persian sharbat, both going back to Arabicšarbah, "drink.” The Turkish and Persian words referred to a beverage of sweetened, diluted fruit juicethat was popular in the Middle East and imitated in Europe.Eventually in Europesherbet came to refer to a carbonated drink. Because the original Middle Eastern drink contained fruit and was often cooled with snow,sherbet was applied to the frozen dessert (first recorded in 1891). It is thus distinguished slightly fromsorbet, which can also mean "a fruit-flavored ice served between courses of a meal.”Sorbet (first recorded in English in 1585) goes back through French ( sorbet ) and then Italian ( sorbetto ) to the same Turkish sherbet that gave us sherbet. 单词sherbet 引入英语语言中已经有几个世纪了(首次记录于1603年), 但它并不是象人们通常认为的果汁牛奶冻名称。这个单词是由奥斯曼土耳其语sherbet 或波斯语 sharbat 形成英语的, 二者都可回溯到阿拉伯语sarbah ,意为“饮料”。 该词土耳其及波斯语指一种加甜的、稀释的水果汁饮料,它流行于中东并在欧洲被仿制。最后,在欧洲,sherbet 指一种碳酸饮料。 因为最初的中东饮品中包含有水果汁并常用雪冷却,所以sherbet 用于指冰冻甜点(首次记录于1891年)。 这样它与Sorbet 稍有区别, 但也可指“在一顿饭的几道菜之间供应的果味冰”。Sorbet (在英语中首次记录于1585年)通过法语( sorbet )和意大利语( sorbetto )可以回溯到向我们提供 sherbet 的相同的土耳其词 sherbet |
