单词 gazette
释义

gazetten.

Brit. /ɡəˈzɛt/, U.S. /ɡəˈzɛt/
Forms: 1600s gazetta, gasetta (plural gazetti, gazettaes), 1600s–1700s gazet(t, (1600s gaziette), 1700s gazzette, 1600s– gazette.
Etymology: < French gazette, < Italian gazzetta , plural gazzette (whence the earliest forms in English), apparently so called from the coin of that name (see gazet n.), which may have been the sum paid either for the paper itself or for the privilege of reading it; but a derivation < gazzetta, diminutive of gazza magpie, is not impossible. In late 17th and early 18th cent., the word came to be accented on the first syllable, and it is so marked by Johnson. Cowper ( Table Talk 37) again accents it in the original fashion.
1.
a. A news-sheet; a periodical publication giving an account of current events. (Now historical.)The gazzetta was first published in Venice about the middle of the 16th cent., and similar news-sheets appeared in France and England in the 17th. The untrustworthy nature of their reports is often alluded to by writers of that period; thus Florio explains gazzette as ‘running reports, daily newes, idle intelligences, or flim flam tales that are daily written from Italie, namely from Rome and Venice’.
