核心畫面

A way to hold the adjective: a name with a large piece of ground attached to it. The -ed here is the one in talented or pointed — it means carrying this, fitted with this — so landed is simply with land. From that single picture the word looks two ways: at the people who carry the land (landed gentry) and at the thing being carried (a landed estate). Note that this is a different word from the landed in the plane landed, which is the past form of the verb.

可以想成:一個姓氏底下壓著一大片地。這裡的 -ed 跟 talented、pointed 的 -ed 同一類,意思是更多收起可以想成:一個姓氏底下壓著一大片地。這裡的 -ed 跟 talented、pointed 的 -ed 同一類,意思是「身上帶著這個」,所以 landed 就是「帶著土地的」。同一個畫面可以往兩邊看:看帶著地的那群人(landed gentry),或看被帶著的那片地(a landed estate)。要分清楚的是,the plane landed 裡的 landed 是動詞 land 的過去式,跟這個形容詞不是同一件事。

From the word’s history

Wiktionary gives landed as inherited from Middle English londed, from Old English ġelandod, and analysable on the surface as land + -ed. That -ed forms adjectives meaning provided with, so the modern core — owning land, consisting of land — sits directly on top of the older form.

供給的 Wiktionary 條目說 landed 來自中古英文 londed、古英文 ġelandod,表面上可以拆成 land 加 -ed。這個 -ed 用來造「帶有某樣東西的」形容詞,所以今天的核心意思(有地的、由地構成的)就直接坐在這個舊形式上面。
