英英释义

  • n.clothing of a distinctive style or for a particular occasion

词源

  • attire服装，礼服
    前缀at-同ad-. -tire同单词tier, 准备，安排，层级。服装是身份的象征，所以该词特指比较正式的衣服。
  • attire服装，衣着
    该词源自法语。13世纪古法语动词attir(i)er‘equip，arrange’进入英语，其名词形式attire也一起被借了过来，用以表示equipment（装备），士兵身上穿的和带的亦可用它表示。到了14世纪attire及其缩略形式tire的词义演变为equipment with which an individual covers and adorns his or her body，其实就是“服装”，“衣着”，attire至今仍用于此义，但tire则不再这么用了。从15世纪起tire及其异体tyre开始用以指“轮箍”，到了19世纪又转指“轮胎”。英国英语拼作tyre，但美国英语则沿用原来的形式tire。
