英文词源
- ceremony
- ceremony: [14] The antecedents of ceremony are obscure. We can trace it back to Latin caerimōnia ‘religious rites’, but there the trail stops. It probably arrived in English via Old French ceremonie.
- ceremony (n.)
- late 14c., cerymonye, from Old French ceremonie and directly from Medieval Latin ceremonia, from Latin caerimonia "holiness, sacredness; awe; reverent rite, sacred ceremony," an obscure word, possibly of Etruscan origin, or a reference to the ancient rites performed by the Etruscan pontiffs at Caere, near Rome. Introduced in English by Wyclif.
