释义

accompanimentn.

Brit. /əˈkʌmp(ə)nᵻm(ə)nt/, U.S. /əˈkəmp(ə)nimənt/, /əˈkəmp(ə)nəmənt/
Forms:

α. 1600s– accompaniment, 1700s accompanyment.

β. 1700s accompagnement.

Origin: Formed within English, by derivation; probably modelled on a French lexical item. Etymons: accompany v., -ment suffix.
Etymology: < accompany v. + -ment suffix, probably after French accompagnement (1264 in Old French as acompaignement denoting a type of legal contract, 1539 in Middle French in sense ‘group of people accompanying someone’, 1549 in sense ‘action of accompanying’, 1690 in specific musical use). Compare Old Occitan acompanhamen , Catalan acompanyament (1653), Spanish acompañamiento (early 15th cent.), Italian accompagnamento (14th or 15th cent.). Compare earlier accompanying n.1The form accompaniment is attested earlier, apparently as a typographical error for accomplishment n.: 1669 Gray's Great Precious Promises (rev. ed.) i. 17 A Christian if he will observe, he will see infinite wisdome shining in timeing the accompaniment [1663 ed. 1 accomplishment] of the promise to such a particular day.
