词源
- dozen十二个来自拉丁语duodecim, 十二,duo, 二,decim, 十。
- dozen一打;十二个单词twelve(十二)以two(二)开头,同样,dozen也以“二”开头。它来自拉丁语duodecim,其中duo表“二”,decim表“十”。简单地说,dozen的do为词根“二”,-zen是“十”的残余。同根词如double(两倍的),其中ble表“翻折”。中文量词“打”是其音译。
- dozenFrom Old French dozaine (“a group of twelve”) (French douzaine), from doze (“twelve”) + -aine (“-ish”), from Latin duodecim (“twelve”) (from duo (“two”) + decem (“ten”)) + -ana (“-ish”)
