    细心的人可能会发现canvass和另一个词canvas在词形上极为相似,仅有一个字母之差。其实何止词形,在词源上两者就有密切的亲缘关系。 canvas源自拉丁语cannabis‘hemp’(大麻),但却直接借自古法语,在中古英语作ca nevas,因早先粗帆布系由大麻制成,故canvas即被用以表示“粗帆布”,而后又由此引申出“油画布”、“油画”等义。而canvass则是16世纪时从canvas演变的,从一开始就作为动词用。这也说明为什么canvass的s是双写的。canvass的原义是to toss sb in a Canvas sheetfor pIeasure or punishment,此后词义几经变化,由“痛打”而“痛斥”,由“痛斥”而“(详细)讨论”。旧时粗帆布一度被用来筛东西,由此又引申出“(详细)检查(如选票)”、“征隶意见”、“拉选票”等义,尤用于美国英语。
