单词 chattel
释义

chatteln.

/ˈtʃat(ə)l/
Forms: Middle English chatel, chetel, 1500s chatel, chatell, 1500s–1600s chattell, 1500s– chattel.
Etymology: < Old French chatel, chetel (Old Northern French catel , Provençal captal , capdal ) < late Latin captāle , Latin capitāle principal, property, goods, etc.: see cattle n. Chatel , plural chateux , was the form adopted in legal Anglo-Norman; it appears in vernacular use in the 13th cent., and the plural chateux is occasional as a technical term in Middle English; but the actual form adopted in English was the Norman catel , later cattell , cattle . In the 16th cent. (as shown under cattle n.) this was gradually restricted to ‘live stock’, and at the same time chatel, chattel, began to pass from Law French into general use for the wider sense ‘article of property’.
