dinette 的詞源
dinette(n.)
"用於進餐的小房間或凹室",1930年,來自 dine + 小型化後綴(或虛假的法語)-ette。早期它的意思是“預備晚餐,午餐”(1870年)。
The Court dinner-hour, in the reign of George III., was at the Hanoverian hour of four o'clock. During the reign of George IV. it gradually crept up to six o'clock, and finally became steady at the Indian hour of seven, and so remained until the reign of Her Most gracious Majesty, when the formal Court dinner-hour became eight o'clock. These innovations on the national hours of meals did not meet the approval of the medical faculty, and in consequence a dinette at two o'clock was prescribed. This has ever since been the favourite Court meal, being in reality a substantial hot repast, which has exploded the old-fashioned luncheon of cold viands. [The Queen newspaper, London, quoted in Imperial Dictionary, 1883]
在喬治三世時代,宮廷晚餐時間是漢諾威時間的四點鐘。在喬治四世時代,它逐漸推遲到六點鐘,最終穩定在印度時間的七點鐘,一直保持到她最親切的陛下的統治時期,正式的宮廷晚餐時間變成了八點鐘。這些對餐點的國家時間的創新並未得到醫學界的認可,因此規定了下午兩點鐘的 dinette。這自那時以來一直是最受歡迎的宮廷餐點,實際上是一頓豐盛的熱餐,已經取代了舊式的冷肉午餐。[《女王報》,倫敦,引自《帝國詞典》,1883年]
