英文词源
- bower
- bower: [OE] A bower was originally simply a place where one lived; the modern connotation of a ‘secluded arbour’ did not become fully established until the 16th century. Old English būr came from West and North Germanic *būraz or *būram, a derivative of the prolific base *bü- ‘dwell’, which also produced be, boor, booth, bound ‘intending to go’, build, burly, byelaw, byre, and the -bour of neighbour.
=> be, boor, booth, build, burly, byre, neighbour - bower (n.)
- Old English bur "room, hut, dwelling, chamber," from Proto-Germanic *buraz (cognates: Old Norse bur "chamber," Swedish bur "cage," Old High German bur "dwelling, chamber," German Bauer "birdcage"), from *bu- "to dwell," from PIE root *bheue- "to be, exist, dwell" (see be). Modern spelling developed after mid-14c. Sense of "leafy arbor" (place closed in by trees) is first attested 1520s. Hence, too, Australia's bower-bird (1847).
