Middle English huseband

中古英语 huseband

from Old English hôsbônda

源自 古英语 hôsbônda

from Old Norse hôsbôndi

源自 古斯堪的纳维亚语 hôsbôndi

hôs [house]

hôs [房子]

bôndi, bôandi [householder] [present participle of] bôa [to dwell] * see bheu…-

bôndi, bôandi [住户] [] bôa的现在分词 [居住] *参见 bheu…-

<注释>We gain an insight into the history of the wordhusband by considering the Old English word hôsbônde, meaning .the mistress of a house..Ifhôsbônde had survived into Modern English, husband, its modern form, would have been very ambiguous.The fact thathôsbônde could mean .mistress of a house. helps us see the elements that make up the Old English ancestor of our wordhusband. Hôscorresponds to house. The element-bônde is the feminine form of -bônda, the second element of Old Englishhôsbônda. The entire Old English word is a borrowing of the Old Icelandic wordhôsbôndi, meaning .the master of a house..The second element inhôsbôndi, bôndi, means .a man who has land and stock. and comes from the verbbôa, meaning .to live, dwell, have a household.. The master of the house was of course usually the spouse of a wife as well,and it would seem that our main current sense ofhusband arises from this overlap.

考察一下古英语中husbonde 这个词，我们就会对 husband 这个词的历史有一定了解， 意思是.房子的女主人.。假如husbonde 这个词能留存在现代英语中， 作为husbonde 的现代形式， 它的意思会变得很模糊。husbonde 的意思是.房子的女主人.， 这有助于我们找出那些构成古英语中我们今天的husband这个词的前身。 Hus对应 house 。 -bonde 是 -bonda 的阴性形式， 古英语中 husbonda 的第二个部分。 这个古英语中的词整体上借自冰岛语中的 husbondi ， 意思是.房子的男主人.。husbondi, bondi 第二部分的意思是.一个拥有土地和牲畜的男子.， 它来自动词 bua ，意思是.生活、居住、拥有一个家.。 一座房子的男主人当然通常也是妻子的配偶，看起来今天husband 这个词的中心意思源于这种重叠
