    词源词根法

    从前小学生学习英文的时候,学到drawing-room这个词,大概都会觉得奇怪drawing是绘画,drawing-room该是绘画室,为什么却是“客厅”呢?莫非英国人喜欢在客厅里绘画?=其实drawing这里不是指绘画,而是withdrawing(退出)的缩写。古时英国人宴客之后,女主人会和所有女客人一起退出饭厅(dining-room),让留在饭厅里的男人可以痛痛快快抽烟喝酒,或者说些很可能“妇女不宜”的话。妇女“退出”之后坐下来闲聊的地方,当然就是withdrawing-room了,后来缩写为drawing-room,其实就是客厅。=今天,男女平等呼声响亮,drawing-room这个词在“性别歧视”指责之下是日渐式微了。在英国,不少人已经把drawing-room改称为sitting-room;在美国,客厅一般叫做living-room。=drawing-room n客厅,休息室
