racquet的词源

英文词源

racquet (n.): "handled hitting device used in tennis, etc.," c. 1500, probably originally "tennis-like game played with open hand" (late 14c.), from Middle French rachette, requette (Modern French raquette) "racket for hitting; palm of the hand," perhaps via Italian racchetta or Spanish raqueta, both often said to be from Arabic rahat, a form of raha "palm of the hand," but this has been doubted. Compare French jeu de paume "tennis," literally "play with the palm of the hand," and compare tennis).

来自法语 raquette,球拍，手掌，来自阿拉伯语 rahat,手掌。比喻用法，原指手击球，后指球拍。
