- cafe (n.)
- 1802, from French café "coffee, coffeehouse," from Italian caffe "coffee" (see coffee). The beverage was introduced in Venice by 1615 and in France from 1650s by merchants and travelers who had been to Turkey and Egypt. The first public café might have been the one opened in Marseilles in 1660.
中文解释
在英语里,cafe 这个词指的是那种比较小、一般很随意的餐馆。通常店里的桌子都不大,有时还会在门外摆几张餐桌。它既可以带着重音符号,写成 café;也可以不带,写作 cafe。“cafe”源于法语单词 coffee,不过它跟其他语言中一些与咖啡有关的单词也很像。所以通常 cafe 里都是供应咖啡的,而只卖咖啡(不卖其他吃的)的地方,通常被称为 coffee shop。另外还要注意的是,有一个与之类似的单词 cafeteria 比较容易混淆。一般的 cafeteria 是那种只为特定的一群人服务的餐厅,通常开在学校或者公司里的才叫 cafeteria,它们只面向在那里工作或者学习的人开放。
