英文词源


stanza
stanza: [16] Etymologically, a stanza is a place where one ‘stands’ or stops. The word was borrowed from Italian stanza, a descendant of Vulgar Latin *stantia ‘standing, stopping-place’, which in turn was derived from the present participle of Latin stāre ‘stand’ (source of English stage, state, station, etc). Its application to a ‘verse of poetry’ arose in Italian from the notion of ‘stopping’ at the end of a section. Stanza was borrowed into French as stance, from which English gets stance [16].
=> stance, stand, state, station
stanza (n.)
"group of rhymed verse lines," 1580s, from Italian stanza "verse of a poem," originally "standing, stopping place," from Vulgar Latin *stantia "a stanza of verse," so called from the stop at the end of it, from Latin stantem (nominative stans), present participle of stare "to stand," from PIE root *sta- "to stand, set down, make or be firm" (see stet). Related: Stanzaic.
