關動物的圍欄
這個意思跟寫字的筆沒有關係,只是拼法碰巧一樣;把它當成另一個字來記比較不會混淆。

圍欄/畜欄
Picture the thin tool in your hand laying a line of ink on paper — that is the pen most of this entry is about. Be warned that the entry has swept several different words together: the animal enclosure is a separate word that only looks the same, and two of the senses are just short forms of longer words.
Pen 'writing tool' (late 13c.) is from Old French pene, Latin penna 'feather' — early pens were quills. Pen 'animal enclosure' is a separate word, Old English penn, of uncertain origin, possibly related to pinn 'pin, peg'. Pen 'prison' is a shortening of penitentiary, attested 1884.
寫字的 pen(13 世紀末)來自古法語 pene、拉丁文 penna「羽毛」——早期的筆就是羽毛管。關牲畜的 pen 是另一個字,來自古英語 penn,來源不確定,可能跟 pinn(栓、樁)有關。指監獄的 pen 則是 penitentiary 的縮寫,1884 年開始有紀錄。三者長得一樣,但走的是不同的路。
