The name of this pious order was later used as the name (first recorded in English in 1785) for a type of monkey with a tuft of black, cowllike hair.In Italiancappuccino went on to develop another sense, “espresso coffee mixed or topped with steamed milk or cream,”so called because the color of the coffee resembled the color of the habit of a Capuchin friar.The first use ofcappuccino in English is recorded in 1948 in a work about San Francisco. cappuccino 一词的历史很好地说明了词语如何可以因一些相似性而发展出新的意思, 而这些词的创造者也许做梦都没想过这些相似性是可能的。嘉布遣会建于1525年后,在将天主教带回经历宗教改革的欧洲的过程中发挥了重要作用。它的意大利语名称来自一种长而尖的蒙斗篷,或称cappuccino, 这个词又来自coppuccio, 意为“风帽”, 蒙头斗篷是这一派修士所穿衣服的一部分。Cappuccino 在法语中成了 capuchin (现在是 capucin ), 英语中的Capuchin 就来自这个法语词。 这一虔诚教派的名字后来被用来作一种带一撮黑色的、蒙面斗篷似毛发的驴子的名字(于1785年首次用英语记录)。在意大利语中,cappuccino 接着又发展出一个新的意思, 意为“混以或加入煮过的牛奶或奶油的浓别啡,”这样叫是因为这种咖啡的颜色类似于嘉布遣会修士所穿衣服的颜色。Cappuccino 在英语中的第一次使用记载于1948年一本关于旧金山的著作中 |
