<注釋>The history of the wordcasino reveals a transformation from a cottage to a gambling palace. The source of our word, Italiancasino, is a diminutive ofcasa, .house,. itself from Latinc3sa, .cottage, hut, hovel.. Central to the transformation is the development of the senses ofcasino in Italian. The word was first applied to a country houseand then came to be used for a social gathering place,a room or building where one could dance, listen to music, and gamble. This last pastime seems to have gained precedence over the others,at least as far as the development of the word is concerned, andcasino took on the meaning .gambling establishment.. These senses of the Italian word have all been borrowed into English,the sense .social gathering place. being recorded first in the 8th century,the sense .gambling establishment. first in 85.
單詞casino 的歷史揭示了一個(gè)從村舍到賭場(chǎng)的轉(zhuǎn)化。 我們這個(gè)意大利詞casino 的來(lái)源， 是casa 的小字尾.房屋.， 而其本身也來(lái)自于拉丁語(yǔ)casa ，意思是.村舍、小屋、茅屋。. 對(duì)這一轉(zhuǎn)化起中心作用的是casino 一詞在意大利語(yǔ)中的意思發(fā)展。 起初，這個(gè)詞被用來(lái)指一所鄉(xiāng)間房屋，然后逐漸用它來(lái)指一個(gè)社交聚會(huì)場(chǎng)所，一個(gè)人們可以在那里跳舞、聽(tīng)音樂(lè)和賭博的房間或建筑物。這最后一種娛樂(lè)的地位似乎已在其他娛樂(lè)之上，至少就casino 這個(gè)詞的發(fā)展來(lái)說(shuō)是這樣的，于是它開(kāi)始有了.賭場(chǎng).的含義。 這個(gè)意大利詞的這些意義都已被借用到英語(yǔ)中；.社交聚會(huì)場(chǎng)所.這層意思在8世紀(jì)首次被記錄下來(lái)，.賭場(chǎng).的含義在85年被首次記錄下來(lái)
