单词 schedule
释义 I. schedule, n.
(ˈʃɛdjuːl, ˈʃɛdəl; U.S. ˈskɛdjuːl)
Forms: 4–6 cedule, sedule, 5–6 cedull, sedull, 6–7 cedul, scedull, scedule, shedule, 6 schedul(l, (chedull, seadule, 7 shedulle), 6– schedule. Also 7 in Latin form scedula.
[ME. cedule, sedule, a. OF. cedule (mod.F. cédule), ad. late L. scedula (in med. and mod.Latin also written schedula), dim. of L. sceda (med.L. also scheda): see scede, schede ns. The word has passed from Latin into most of the Rom. and Teut. langs.: Pr. cedula, cedola, Sp. cédula, Pg. cedula, It. cedola; MHG. zedele, zetele (mod.G. zettel), MLG. sedele, MDu. cedule, cedele (Du. cedel, ceel), Sw. sedel, Da. seddel, Icel. seðill.
In the 16th c., both in Fr. and Eng., the spellings scedule and schedule, imitating the contemporary forms of the Latin word, were used by a few writers. In Fr. this fashion was transient, but in Eng. schedule has been the regular spelling from the middle of the 17th c. The original pronunciation |ˈsɛdjuːl| continued in use long after the change in spelling; it is given in 1791 by Walker without alternative; in his second ed. (1797) he says that it is ‘too firmly fixed by custom to be altered’, though on theoretical grounds he would prefer either |ˈskɛdjuːl|, favoured by Kenrick, Perry, and Buchanan, or—‘if we follow the French’—|ˈʃɛdjuːl|. The latter he does not seem to have known either in actual use or as recommended by any orthoepist. Smart, however, in 1836 gives |ˈʃɛdjuːl| in the body of his Dictionary without alternative, although in his introduction he says that as the word is of Gr. origin the normal pronunciation would be with |sk|. Several later Dicts. recognize |ˈsɛdjuːl| as permissible, but it is doubtful whether this was really justified by usage. In England the universal pronunciation at present seems to be with |ʃ|; in the U.S., the authority of Webster has secured general currency for |sk|.]
