词源

adjournment (n.)

15世纪中叶, ajournement,"推迟或延期(法庭、议会等)的行为",源自古法语 ajornement "黎明,招唤(出庭)",源自 ajorner(参见 adjourn),在英语中加入了不符合词源学的 -d-,是基于对拉丁语起源的错误期望。

Adjournment is the act by which an assembly suspends its session in virtue of authority inherent in itself; it may be also the time or interval of such suspension. A recess is a customary suspension of business, as during the period of certain recognized or legal holidays .... Recess is also popularly used for a brief suspension of business for any reason: as, it was agreed that there be a recess of ten minutes. [Century Dictionary]
