causeway词源

causeway

causeway: [15] Etymologically, a causeway is a road paved with limestone. In late Middle English, the word was causey way, causey coming via Anglo-Norman *cauce from Vulgar Latin *calciāta, an adjective derived from Latin calx ‘limestone’ (source also of English chalk, calcium, and calculate). The simple form causey ‘causeway, path’ survived dialectally well into the 20th century, and its French relative chausée, ‘road’ is still very much alive.=> calcium, calculate, chalk

causeway (n.)

1570s, from Middle English cauceweye \"raised road\" (mid-15c.), first element from Anglo-French cauce, Old North French cauciee (12c., Modern French chaussée), from Vulgar Latin *via calciata \"paved way,\" from Latin calcis, genitive of calx (2) \"limestone,\" or Late Latin calciare \"to stamp with the heels, tread\" (on notion of a road or mound across marshy ground made firm by treading down), from Latin calx (1) \"heel.\" For second element, see way (n.).
