单词 day tide
释义

day tiden.

Brit. /ˈdeɪ tʌɪd/, U.S. /ˈdeɪ ˌtaɪd/
Origin: Formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: day n., tide n.
Etymology: < day n. + tide n. With senses 1 and 2 compare Middle Dutch dagetijt (Dutch †dagtijd ), Middle Low German dachtīt , dāgetīt , Old High German tagozīt (Middle High German tagezīt ; German †Tagzeit ), all in sense ‘daytime’, in early use also spec. (in plural) denoting the canonical hours. Compare also Old Icelandic dagtíð , Old Swedish daghtidh , daghs tidh , apparently only with reference to the canonical hours, and Old Icelandic dagstíð in both senses. Compare daytime n. With sense 3 compare earlier night-tide n. 2.Earlier currency of sense 3 is implied by post-classical Latin daytyda tide occurring during the day (14th cent. in a British source).
1. = daytime n. Also: the period of a day. Cf. night-tide n. 1. Now rare (chiefly poetic or literary in later use).In Old English in dative plural with adverbial force in sense ‘during the daytime’ (although ‘at times’ has alternatively been suggested).
