单词 | 大帐篷 |
释义 | 〔kiosk〕The lowly kiosk where one buys a newspaper or on which one posts advertisements is like a child in a fairy tale who though raised by humble parents is really the descendant of kings.The wordkiosk was originally taken into English ultimately from Turkish, in which its sourceköshk meant "pavilion.” The open structures referred to by the Turkish word were used as pavilions and summerhouses in Turkey and Persia.The first recorded use ofkiosk in English (1625) has reference to these Middle Eastern structures, which Europeans imitated in their own gardens and parks. In France and Belgium,where the Turkish word had also been borrowed,their wordkiosque was applied to something lower on the scale, structures resembling these pavilions but used as places to sell newspapers or as bandstands. England borrowed this lowly structure from Franceand reborrowed the word,which is first recorded in 1865with reference to a place where newspapers are sold.用来购买报纸或张贴广告的普通的凉亭好像是神话故事中尽管由地位低下的父母抚养但确实是国王后代的儿童一样,单词kiosk 收入英文的起源最早是土耳其语, 土耳其语中它的出处koshk 意为“大帐篷”。 在土耳其语中开敞的建筑物用来作为土耳其和波斯的帐篷和凉亭。英语中最早记录的kiosk 的使用(1625年)参照于欧洲人在他们自己的花园和公园中仿制的中东式建筑。 在法国和比利时,这个土耳其语单词也被借用,它们的单词kiosque 适用于结构上类似于这些凉亭,但规模上比较矮,用作卖报纸的场所或室外音乐台的建筑。 英国从法国引进了这种普通建筑,并且重新引入了这个单词,它的最早记载是在1865年,与卖报纸的场所有关〔marquee〕A large tent with open sides, used chiefly for outdoor entertainment.大帐篷:一种四周开敞的大帐篷,主要用于户外娱乐 |
