喜樂美語

From the word’s history

From Middle French audicion, from Latin audītiō, from audiō 'to hear'.

源自中古法文 audicion，來自拉丁文 audiō「聽」。

Wiktionary

Picture an empty stage, one person performing for two or three people sitting in the dark with a list: a short try-out that decides who gets the part. The word covers the event itself and both sides of it — the person performing and the people judging.

可以想成：空空的舞台上一個人在表演，台下坐著兩三個拿著名單的人——一場短短的試演，決定誰拿到這個角色。這個字包含那場試演本身，也包含兩邊的人：上台演的那個，和坐著評的那些。
