单词 domesday
释义

Domesdayn.

Brit. /ˈduːmzdeɪ/, /ˈdəʊmzdeɪ/, U.S. /ˈdumzˌdeɪ/
Etymology: < dómes genitive of dóm doom n. + day n.
A Middle English spelling of doomsday n., day of judgement, now commonly used as a historical term.
a. Domesday Book n. (colloquially Domesday) the name applied, from the 12th cent., to the record of the Great Inquisition or Survey of the lands of England, their extent, value, ownership, and liabilities, made by order of William the Conqueror in 1086. Extended to abstracts based upon that record, such as the Exon Domesday. [The name appears to have been derived directly < Domesday the Day of the Last Judgement, and Domesday Book the Book by which all men would be judged. It originated as a popular appellation (see Dial. de Scacc.), given to the Book as being a final and conclusive authority on all matters on which it had to be referred to.]
