Middle English huseband 中古英语 huseband 2. from Old English h&9{¿sb½nda} 源自 古英语 h&9{¿sb½nda} 3. from Old Norse h&9{¿sb½ndi} 源自 古斯堪的纳维亚语 h&9{¿sb½ndi} 4. h&9{¿s} [house] h&9{¿s} [房子] 5. b½ndi, b&9{¿andi} [householder] [present participle of] b&9{¿}a [to dwell] * see bheu…- b½ndi, b&9{¿andi} [住户] [] b&9{¿}a的现在分词 [居住] *参见 bheu…- 注释:We gain an insight into the history of the wordhusband by considering the Old English word h&9{¿sb½nde,} meaning “the mistress of a house.”Ifh&9{¿sb½nde} had survived into Modern English, husband, its modern form, would have been very ambiguous.The fact thath&9{¿sb½nde} could mean “mistress of a house” helps us see the elements that make up the Old English ancestor of our wordhusband. H&9{¿}scorresponds to house. The element-b½nde is the feminine form of -b½nda, the second element of Old Englishh&9{¿sb½nda.} The entire Old English word is a borrowing of the Old Icelandic wordh&9{¿sb½ndi,} meaning “the master of a house.”The second element inh&9{¿sb½ndi, b½ndi,} means “a man who has land and stock” and comes from the verbb&9{¿a,} meaning “to live, dwell, have a household.” The master of the house was of course usually the spouse of a wife as well,and it would seem that our main current sense ofhusband arises from this overlap. 考察一下古英语中husbonde 这个词，我们就会对 husband 这个词的历史有一定了解， 意思是“房子的女主人”。假如husbonde 这个词能留存在现代英语中， 作为husbonde 的现代形式， 它的意思会变得很模糊。husbonde 的意思是“房子的女主人”， 这有助于我们找出那些构成古英语中我们今天的husband这个词的前身。 Hus对应 house 。 -bonde 是 -bonda 的阴性形式， 古英语中 husbonda 的第二个部分。 这个古英语中的词整体上借自冰岛语中的 husbondi ， 意思是“房子的男主人”。husbondi, bondi 第二部分的意思是“一个拥有土地和牲畜的男子”， 它来自动词 bua ，意思是“生活、居住、拥有一个家”。 一座房子的男主人当然通常也是妻子的配偶，看起来今天husband 这个词的中心意思源于这种重叠 |
