樂曲的尾巴
英文是從音樂借進這個字的,所以這一支離那條尾巴最近,也是其他用法的出發點。
noun · C1
An extra section added at the end of a piece of music, after the main part is finished, to bring the piece to a close.
尾聲(樂曲的)
The Italian word means tail, and that is the shape to keep. Something has a body — a piece of music, a book, a party, even a single syllable — and then, hanging off the end of it, a tail. The tail is not the body. It comes after the main work is finished, it is usually short, and it is separate enough to be pointed at and named. Every use of this word is somebody pointing at that tail and saying: this part here, after the end.
Borrowed from Italian coda, literally tail, from Latin cauda; a doublet of queue.
借自義大利文 coda,字面就是「尾巴」,再往前是拉丁文 cauda。它跟英文的 queue(排隊)其實是同源的兄弟字,queue 原本也是「尾巴」的意思。知道這一點,下面每一個用法都會自己站好位置。
