n.妓院¹⁰⁰复数brothels
Noun:
a building where prostitutes are available源于古英语breothan‘to go to ruin’毁灭，14世纪原指“窝囊废”，15世纪转指“妓女”，故妓院就称brothelhouse。到了16世纪末期brothelhouse缩略为brothel，brothel的词义也因此由“妓女”变为“妓院”了。这两种形式莎士比亚在剧作中都使用过。brothel的形与义的演变在很大程度上是受了意为“妓院”的古闻bordel的影响。broth +-elS.名④场所|地点⇒n.妓院近义词 nest巢bordello妓院cathouse妓院bawdyhouse妓院whorehouse妓院sporting house妓院bagnio意大利或土耳其的澡堂…
