单词 marquesina
释义

marquesinan.

Brit. /ˌmɑːkeɪˈziːnə/, U.S. /ˌmɑrk(w)əˈzinə/
Origin: Probably a borrowing from Italian. Etymon: Italian marchesina.
Etymology: Probably < Italian marchesina daughter of a marchese (1750) < marchese marchese n. + -ina -ina suffix; the spelling in -qu- is after marquise n. or marquis n.1 3.Sterne's ‘Marquesina di F***’ has been identified as a historical figure, the Marchesa Fagniani. This identification is far from certain, and there is no other reason to suggest, as N.E.D. does s.v., that ‘Sterne was probably thinking of marchesana = marchesa ’. Quot. 1988 is from literary criticism of the work cited in quot. 1768.
rare.
Probably: the daughter of an Italian marchese.
