Going back to the Indo-European rootkel- 1, "to cover,” the Old English wordheall, ancestor of our hall, referred to "a large place covered by a roof, whether a royal residence, an official building, or a large private residence, or a large room in a residencewhere the public life of the household is carried on.”These senses and related ones are still in use,as is attested bytown hall and halls of academe. Our common use of the termhall for a vestibule or a corridor harks back to medieval times when the hall was the main public room of a residenceand people lived much less privately than now.As private rooms in houses took on the importance they have today,the hall lost its function.Hall also had come to mean any large room, and the vestibule was at one time one of the main sitting rooms in a house,but this sort of room has largely disappeared also,andhall has become the designation for the small vestibule of today as well as for an entrance passage or any passageway.halls of academe 以及 city hall 提醒我们注意: 我们通常把hall 这个词定义为“走廊,门厅”, 反映出hall 这词当初设定时的通常含义的种种痕迹。 追溯到该词的印欧语词根kel- 1, 意思是“去覆盖”, 我们hall 这个词的来源是古英语中 heall 这个词, 它指的是“一个有屋顶覆盖的大地方或者属于皇室住宅、政府建筑或是一座大的私人府第或者是一所住宅中的大房子,主人在其中进行社交活动”。这些概念或与之相关的意思直到今天还有,比如说town hall 和 halls of academe 。 我们现在一般所用的,把hall 当作门厅或走廊的用法可以追溯到中世纪, 那时大厅是居住者的最主要的起居室,人们生活还没有今天这么隐私化,于今日个人房间在生活中占主要地位,大厅失去了它当年的功用。Hall 还曾意味着大房间, 而门厅在过去一段时间内曾是房屋中主要的一处起居室,但这样的房子大部分也都消失了,而hall 的意思已经变成指那些当今小的走廊, 或者是进出口处的走廊,或者是随便哪个走廊〔hang〕hung four new paintings in the foyer.在门厅悬挂展览四幅新的绘画作品〔pandemonium〕"The whole lobby was a perfect pandemonium, and the din was terrific"(Jerome K. Jerome)“整个门厅一片嘈杂,而且喧嚣刺耳”(杰罗姆K.杰罗姆)〔hall〕A large entrance room or vestibule in a building; a lobby.大厅,前厅:一个建筑物中大的门厅;前厅〔scutter〕"The gun scutters over the tiles and lands against the molding of the hallway with a thump"(Scott Turow)“那支枪跌跌撞撞地在屋瓦上移动,然后重重地撞在门厅走廊的线脚上”(斯科特·图罗)〔vestibular〕Of, relating to, or serving as a vestibule.门厅的,前厅的:门厅的,与门厅有关的,作为门厅的 |
