单词 sennet
释义

sennetn.1

Forms: 1500s senet, ( sonnet), 1600s sennit, sennate, sinet, synnet, cynet, signate, sennet.
Etymology: apparently a variant of signet n., in the sense ‘sign, token’ (see signet n. 4). The forms senet, sinet, and others, occur in Old French as variants of signet, which, however, seems not to occur either in the sense below or in the wider sense of token. The word may possibly be Anglo-Norman.Previous versions of the OED give the stress as: ˈsennet.
Obsolete exc. Historical.
A set of notes on the trumpet or cornet, ordered in the stage-directions of Elizabethan plays, apparently as a signal for the ceremonial entrance or exit of a body of players.
