一晚的床加一頓早餐:服務,以及提供它的地方
這一組就是核心本身:先是那份兩樣東西的清單,再是掛著這塊牌子的房子。
noun · B1
The service of giving someone a room to sleep in for one night and a breakfast the next morning, in a hotel or in a private home.
住宿附早餐
One way to hold this phrase: a small sign by a front door offering exactly two things and nothing more — a bed for the night, and a breakfast in the morning. The list of two is the whole idea. From there the same words can point at the house that offers it, and, by an older route, at what that night used to cost.
Formed from bed plus breakfast, from having a bed for the night and breakfast in the morning on offer.
這個說法由 bed 加 breakfast 組成,來自「提供一晚的床和隔天的早餐」這件事。名字本身就是服務清單,所以三個字合起來的意思,跟字面完全一致。

從價錢來的另一條路:飛鏢和賓果裡的 26
這一支不是從「住宿」的畫面延伸出來的,而是繞過價錢:以前住一晚加早餐要 2/6(two shillings and sixpence),數字被聽成二和六。
