hearth

英 [hɑːθ] 美 [hɑrθ]
  • n. 灶台;炉边;炉床;壁炉地面
  • n. (Hearth)人名;(英)哈思

hearth

助记提示


1. carbon / crem- => hearth.

hub 来源于德文 herd 炉

边,炉膛,家庭,(兴趣、活动、重要性等)中心.该字相当于英文的 hearth 炉边,炉

膛,家庭.还可以参考法文 foyer 炉子,策源地,中心.这说明西方人习惯将炉子引申

为"家庭,中心".

原来,hub 是字根 -habit- 和 -hibit-的一种变形.于是 hub 这个原来一直没

有着落的字找到了老家.

(同族字例) hob 炉旁的铁架; inhabit 居住于; inhibit 居住; exhibit

展览; harbor 港口; habitant 居民; cohabit 同居; habitat 栖息地,(植物)

产地,住所,聚集处.

hear + th => 听事----听故事-----在寒冷的冬天,我们一家人围坐在炉边烤火,听爸爸讲故事,想像一下这是多么幸福、温馨的场景啊。

英文词源


hearth
hearth: [OE] Etymologically, hearth seems to mean ‘burning place’. It has been suggested that its West Germanic ancestor *kherthaz, which also produced German herd and Dutch haard, may be connected with Latin cremāre ‘burn’ (source of English cremate [19]) and Lithuanian kurti ‘heat’.
=> cremate
hearth (n.)
Old English heorð "hearth, fireplace, part of a floor on which a fire is made," also in transferred use "house, home, fireside," from West Germanic *hertho "burning place" (cognates: Old Saxon and Old Frisian herth, Middle Dutch hert, Dutch haard, German Herd "floor, ground, fireplace"), from PIE *kerta-, from root *ker- (4) "heat, fire" (see carbon). Hearth-rug is from 1824. Hearth-stone is from early 14c.
