英语词汇casino的起源、历史背景-英语词源词典

词汇	casino
词源	casino. Casino means “little house” in Italian, the diminutive of the Italian casa, “house,” which comes from the Latin casa meaning the same. The word was first used for a country house and then for a building or room in a building where one could dance or gamble. This last meaning, first recorded in 1851, gave us our words for a gambling establishment and the card game called casino.
