saloon的词源

英文词源

saloon: saloon: [18] Saloon is part of a widespread western European family of words for ‘large room’. They go back to a prehistoric Germanic *salaz, ancestor of German saal. This was borrowed into Vulgar Latin as *sala, whose descendants include French salle and Italian sala. A derivative of this, denoting ‘large size’, was salone, which was borrowed into French as salon. English acquired this at the beginning of the 18th century in two forms: the original salon and the anglicized saloon.
saloon (n.): 1728, anglicized form of salon, and originally used interchangeable with it. Meaning "large hall in a public place for entertainment, etc." is from 1747; especially a passenger boat from 1817, also used of railway cars furnished like drawing rooms (1842). Sense of "public bar" developed by 1841, American English.

来自 salon 拼写变体，词义偏向于指娱乐场所，如酒吧，交谊厅等。
