单词 accolade
释义

accoladen.

Brit. /ˈakəleɪd/, /ˌakəˈleɪd/, U.S. /ˈækəˌleɪd/
Forms: 1500s– accolade, 1600s–1800s accollade.
Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymon: French accolade.
Etymology: < Middle French, French accolade action of embracing (1532), salutation marking the bestowal of knighthood (early 17th cent. or earlier), (in music) vertical line or brace coupling together two or more staves (1768), alteration (after words in -ade -ade suffix) of Middle French accolee action of embracing, salutation marking the bestowal of knighthood (13th cent. in Old French) < accoler accoll v. + -ee -y suffix5. Compare Italian accollata (20th cent.). Compare earlier acolee n.Not in Cotgrave 1611, who glosses the French word thus: ‘A colling, clipping, imbracing about the necke; Hence, the dubbing of a knight, or the ceremonie vsed therein’. N.E.D. (1884) gives the pronunciation as (ækolēi·d, akolɑ·d) /ækəʊˈleɪd/, /akəʊˈlɑːd/. Stress on the first syllable seems to have been first recorded by the Encycl. Dict. (1879), which also gives only the vowel // in the final syllable. Dictionaries continue to give the final syllable with the vowel /ɑ(ː)/ as an alternative until the mid 20th cent.
1.
a. The salutation marking the bestowal of knighthood, applied by a stroke on the shoulders with the flat of a sword (now the usual form) and in earlier use also simply by an embrace or kiss; an instance of this. Cf. dubbing n.1 1.
