单词 agroville
释义

agrovillen.

Brit. /ˈaɡrə(ʊ)vɪl/, /aɡrə(ʊ)ˈvɪl/, U.S. /ˈæɡroʊˌvɪl/, /ˈæɡrəˌvɪl/
Origin: Apparently formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: agro- comb. form, -ville comb. form.
Etymology: Apparently < agro- comb. form + -ville comb. form.Despite the correspondence of form and the closeness in sense, the English word does not appear to be a borrowing of French agroville (1930 or earlier as a name for planned agricultural settlements in various countries, especially the former Soviet Union; probably < agro- agro- comb. form + -ville -ville comb. form, perhaps as a calque on Russian agrogorod agrogorod n.).
Now historical.
In the Vietnam War (1955–75): any of a number of purpose-built fortified agricultural centres in South Vietnam, established under a policy of relocating and concentrating dispersed farming communities for safety against the Viet Cong.The policy was introduced in 1959 by President Diem of Vietnam but soon failed, largely as a result of peasant opposition. It was replaced in 1961 by the ‘strategic hamlet’ programme, under which existing villages were fortified.
