semi-detached 的词源
semi-detached(adj.)
“半独立式住宅”最初是指那些通过隔墙相连但与其他建筑物分离的房屋,首次出现于1845年,源自semi-(半)+ detach(分离)的过去分词。
The "Detached House" bears its peculiar characteristic on its front; it stands alone, and nothing more can be said about it; but with the "semi-detached house" there is a subtle mystery, much to be marvelled at. Semi-detached! Have the party-walls between two houses shrunk, or is there a bridge connecting the two, as in Mr. Beckford's house in Landsdown Crescent, Bath? A semi-detached house may be a house with a field on one side and a bone-boiling factory on the other. Semi-detached may mean half-tumbling to pieces. I must inquire into it. ["Houses to Let," in Household Words, March 20, 1852]
“半独立式住宅”在外观上有其独特之处;它独自矗立,除此之外似乎没什么可说的。然而,“半独立式住宅”却隐藏着一种微妙的神秘感,令人惊叹。半独立式!难道是两栋房子之间的隔墙缩短了,还是像贝克福德先生在巴斯兰兹敦广场的房子那样,有一座桥将它们连接起来?一个半独立式住宅可能一侧是田野,另一侧却是骨头熬煮厂。半独立式也许意味着半毁不堪。我得好好调查一下。[摘自《家庭杂志》,1852年3月20日,《出租房屋》一文]
