Middle English dressen [to arrange, put on clothing] 中古英语 dressen [布置，着装] 2. from Old French drecier [to arrange] 源自 古法语 drecier [布置] 3. from Vulgar Latin *d&9{ºrecti³re} 源自 俗拉丁语 *d&9{ºrecti³re} 4. from Latin d&9{ºrectus} [past participle of] d&9{º}rigere [to direct] * see direct 源自 拉丁语 d&9{ºrectus} [] d&9{º}rigere的过去分词 [引导] *参见 direct注释:A dress is such a common article of modern attirethat it is difficult to imagine that the worddress at one time did not refer to such a thing. The earliest sense ofdress, recorded in a work written before 1450, was “speech, talk.” The relationship of our modern sense to this early sense is explained by the factthat the noundress comes from the verb dress, which goes back through Old Frenchdrecier, “to arrange,” and the assumed Vulgar Latind&9{ºrecti³re} to Latin d&9{ºrectus,} a form of the verbd&9{ºrigere,} “to direct.” In accordance with its etymology the verbdress has meant or still means “to place,” “to arrange,” and “to put in order.” The sense “to clothe” is related to the notion of putting in order,specifically in regard to clothing.This verb sense then gave rise to the noun sense “personal attire”as well as to the important garment sense, which has made the fortune of many a fashion designer.The earliest noun sense,“speech,” comes from a verb sense having to do with addressing or directing words to other people.衣服是现代服饰中相当普通的物件，很难想象dress 一词一度并不指衣服。 根据写于1450年以前的一本书记载dress 的最早含义是“说话，谈话。” 我们的现代含义与这一早期含义的关系可由以下事实解释：名词dress 来源于动词 dress ， 动词dress又可追溯到古法语drecier， “安排”， 与假定的拉丁俗语directiaer 乃至拉丁语 directus， 该拉丁词是动词dirigere “引导”的一种形式。 按照其词源动词dress 曾经并仍意为“放置”，“安排”与“使有序”。 “着衣”一义与使有序的意思有关，特别是有关衣物时，该动词意义又产生了名词意义“个人服饰”，以及使许多服装设计师大发其财的正式礼服的意义。最早的名词含义，“说话”来自于有关与其它人说话的动词意义 |
