英文词源


voyage
voyage: [13] Voyage goes back ultimately to Latin via ‘way’ (source also of the English preposition via [18]). From it was derived viāticum, which originally meant ‘provisions for a journey’, but in post-classical times was used for simply ‘journey’. English acquired it via Old French veiyage and Anglo-Norman voiage.
=> via
voyage (n.)
c. 1300, from Old French voiage "travel, journey, movement, course, errand, mission, crusade" (12c., Modern French voyage), from Late Latin viaticum "a journey" (in classical Latin "provisions for a journey"), noun use of neuter of viaticus "of or for a journey," from via "road, journey, travel" (see via).
voyage (v.)
late 15c., from Old French voyager, from voiage (see voyage (n.)). Related: Voyaged; voyaging.
