词汇 solstice
词源

solstice (n.)

"太阳距离赤道最远的两个时期之一",公元13世纪中叶,源自古法语 solstice(13世纪),来自拉丁语 solstitium “太阳似乎停滞的点”,尤指夏至,由 sol “太阳”(源自 PIE 词根 *sawel- “太阳”)和 sistere 的过去分词词干组成“静止,站立; 放置,使站立”(来自 PIE 词根 *sta- “站立,使或保持坚固”) 。在早期使用中,英语化为 sunstead(古英语晚期 sunstede)。

The season of the year when the Sun is in the Tropicks, are called the Solstices, because at those times the Sun seems to be at a stand with regard to his declination, neither going further from the Equator, nor coming nearer to it for several days. [Thomas Harrington, "Science Improved," 1774]
“太阳在 Tropicks 的季节被称为 Solstices,因为在这些时候,太阳似乎在倾斜方面停滞不前,数天内既不远离赤道,也不靠近赤道。”[托马斯·哈林顿(Thomas Harrington),《科学改进》,1774年]
最早记录年份: mid-13c.
